| Publisher Description: May, 1970. After a one-month launch delay, Apollo 13 lands in the Fra Mauro Highlands of the moon--and then the trouble starts.The first in a series of what-if stories from the golden age of space exploration, Zero Phase was written based on meticulous research, and with assistance from two Apollo astronauts: Dr. Edgar Mitchell, who visited the Fra Mauro Highlands--and Captain Jim Lovell, who was supposed to go. Dramatic, detailed, and finely written, with allusions to 2001 and Albert Camus' The Myth of Sisyphus, this novella is a must-read for space aficionados and literary enthusiasts alike. |
