• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Mars Horizon is a story about the real science, infrastructure, and logistics needed to leave the planet and establish a permanent Martian base. On the other hand, its also about corporate greed and government overreach, the frailties of the human condition and the price to be paid in blood and treasure for daring to believe in impossible dreams. But most of all, this is an American storyrooted in science speculation and not just fiction; these events will occur and in our lifetime. Once the right technology matures, commercial enterprise fueled by an indomitable spirit will lead the way, and one day we will look up at the red planet and realize that we are driven to explore the universe not just as an adventure but as a homecoming.

Autorenporträt

Tom DePhillipo is a new author, and Mars Horizon is his first published book. He is a physicist by education and has spent many years developing and testing commercial explosives and munitions. Although book publishing is a new adventure, writing, particularly scientific and engineering publications, is not. "I have always enjoyed a good story and mixing science into a plot is unadulterated fun for me." Tom Lives in New Jersey near Philadelphia and spends his summers in Ocean City, New Jersey. Married forty-five years to his wife, Jennifer, his children, Alexis and Tom Jr., live nearby with three grandchildren - Jonathan, Matthew, and Julianna.
