It is the dawn of the twenty-first hundred years, and America is in big trouble. Public schools breed of dog apathy and ignorance, and politics is just about the art from the quick fix. There is one woman, though, that has both the vision and the amount of money to leverage modification. Mariesa Gorley van Huyten, heiress to 1 of the fantastic American fortunes, founds an educational subsidiary called Coach Academies and starts to subcontract open public school systems to be able to raise a new, less cynical generation. But her clandestine about Firestar program is much bigger than that: it also contains the founding of an exclusive space program, the eventual building of the orbital power place, and the revival of technological innovation on Globe.

Firestar is a chronicle of personal enterprise and person initiative-the story of 1 woman’s quest that becomes the concentrate for a complete new world. Mariesa’s program allows teachers make an effort to show, hires astronauts who have no authorities space plan to take a flight for, and provides productive stores for the idealistic wishes of the rich and powerful-at least those that remain sane plenty of to have such desires in the face of a crumbling America. And it might just work.
