Ex-astronaut, current space advisor, and all-out trouble shooter for the President, Jake Ross, is determined to make it happen. And what better way to return to America's glory than by returning to the moon and setting up a permanent moon-base which can then serve as the launching pad for Mars and beyond. But as usual, political intrigue and conflicting priorities are threatening the whole program. Add to that a President who is about to die, a strong contingent in the legislative body which thinks that money spent on a moon-base is money wasted and the general apathy of the public, and you have an almost impossible task.-- $c Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Astronauts $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Scientists $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Political consultants $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Outer space $x Exploration $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Lunar bases $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Opposition (Political science) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Action and adventure fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 13 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010023018.0 952 $l GMPD771 $d 20230210024020.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201022100.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630015118.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518025428.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220512010305.0 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20220104015204.0 952 $l FJPC224 $d 20210923010831.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20210821010541.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20210803015050.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20210803010713.0 952 $l YKPE532 $d 20210708010236.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210702015452.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=78923C98D96811EB9280A5A654ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
