travels from Earth to uncover the truth. Once there, she finds herself working
with a team of people who have many secrets. To make progress, she has to take

station’s staff have given to this uncanny phenomenon? And how will the discovery
change her life?

solar system – for an encounter with the unknown.

Some review comments:
- Breakfast with Pandora:
“…Abbott uses his deep understanding of human nature to
explore what would happen in a future where outer space is much
less about what’s ‘out there’ than what’s inside us.…”
