The Fleet Of Stars, 1.
Proserpinans report that the cybercosm which rules the inner Solar System is suppressing a discovery made by a solar gravitational lens.
The Proserpinans' own lens failed, they think because of sabotage.
The cybercosm could be robotically spying on Proserpina and on the extra-solar colonies.
The cybercosm, with its stable economy, had ceased antimatter production but has now restarted it. Why?
The Proserpinans detect signs of high-speed ships leaving and sometimes entering the Solar System.
A separate point although relevant to which kind of intelligence is best equipped to terraform planets:
There are several reasons why the presence of a large satellite might have brought about life on Earth. Here it is stated that, without Luna, Earth's spin axis would have been chaotic, leading to either glaciation or greenhouse.
