Seeing Mars II

 

"Neptune Diary."

Back and and forth between the timelines. Having just reread the Prologue to SM Stirling's In The Courts of the Crimson Kings, we find in Poul Anderson's "Neptune Diary":

"Virginia Heinlein is looking great." (p. 30)

"Fred Pohl and his wife..." (ibid.)

"...Jack Williamson over there, damn near immune to time." (ibid.)

There are others but these are the ones that are present both for the real world Neptune mission and for the alternative world Mars mission. And I have some real world responsibilities so I must stop lingering over late breakfast posts.

Kaor, Paul!

Now I'm thinking I should reread parts of ALL ONE UNIVERSE!

Ad astra! Sean
