Looks like I have my work cut out for me but if I do good I can ask to
extend my one year contract.

I hope MOONBASE is as nice as the illustrations.

Best dig into the handbook while waiting for my launch date.

Thanks for looking up with me.

Ben Bova's popular Grand Tour series of novels details humanity's
adventures in the near future, exploring and settling the solar system.
After writing about Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, the Moon, and
the asteroids, Bova finally got around to writing about Earth. Set in
the near future, /Powersat/ follows astronaut-turned-businessman Dan
Randolph as he tries to put Earth's first production solar power
satellite (SPS) into operation. Middle-Eastern terrorists, international
oil companies, and eco-Luddites all want to see him fail, while NASA and
the rest of the Federal bureaucracy are not particularly keen to see a
private company do what they could not. Randolph has an ally in Senator
Jane Thornton, an old flame, who is now running the presidential
campaign of Morgan Scanwell, the governor of Texas.
