“The second level of the best tales from legendary hard research fiction article writer Ben Bova, the inventor of the New York Occasions bestselling Grand Tour technology fiction series, a six-time Hugo award champion, and past president of the National Space Culture.

The stories included in this volume span the five years of Bova’s incandescent career at the guts of technology fiction and space advocacy.

Here are stories of star-faring adventure, peril, and drama. Listed below are journeys in to the mind-bending landscapes of virtual worlds and alternative realities. Here you can also discover stories of humanity’s incredible future on the planet, on Mars, and in the Solar Program beyond-stories that always get the technology correct. And Bova’s gathering of deeply noticed, totally human character types are the heroic, fearless, tricky, occasionally dastardly technicians, astronauts, corporate magnates, politicians, and scientists who will make these futures possible-and those that often find that the issues of tomorrow are constantly linked to human values, and human failings, that are as timeless as the stars.”
