Resumen del Editor

NASA is conducting a series of deep space missions to land on Mars. Because of the one-year round trip of each mission and the need for self-reliance due to the enormous distance from Earth, the spacecraft human crews are commanded by an android who never tires and is always vigilant. The missions are launched from the International Space Station to perform a series of landings on the tiny Martian moon, Phobos, in order to build a staging base for the ultimate descent and landing on the surface of Mars. Madison Lambert, serving as the Chief Astronaut on the space station, receives a distress call from the crew of the spacecraft saying they need immediate help. The plea throws Madison and others at Mission Control into turmoil as they feverishly work to initiate a response filled with danger.

Pretty boring and a bit far fetched.

The book seems to have been written by someone that did not do all of their homework. A solar sail will help you speed up but not slow down. No mention was made of the issue of arriving at Earth or Mars with no relative speed they even mentioned one ship heading back to earth meeting up with the rescue ship. this would require at least one ship to reverse direction then increase speed to match. Add in Androids that are built with an attitude that borders on crazy and is anatomically correct and you have a poor story. You get what you pay for and the book was free!
