About This Book

Two Lunarian friends and their companion prepare and launch a daring interstellar voyage in a small cylindrical craft driven by gravity-manipulation projectors and novel alloys. Detailed technical discussion of acceleration, electromagnetic fields, and relativistic concerns alternates with intimate scenes of rivalry, loyalty, and a budding romance that influence the decision to go. The narrative moves between moonlit lunar settings and onboard experience as the ship leaves the lunar surface, escapes the solar system, and heads toward Rigel, leaving the outcome uncertain while exploring the emotional and scientific dimensions of pioneering space travel.
