註釋

"Scientists... or renegades? Construction of the spaceship Starfarer is almost completed--its vast solar sails accelerating and widening its orbit around earth. its crew of specialists, headed by dedicated scientist Victoria MacKenzie, is prepared to make history with America's second attempt at interstellar exploration. The first research ship, unfortunately, was never heard from again... But that is only the beginning of Starfarer's problems. The U.S. government has decided to reassess the spacecraft's objectives, to place the vessel in the hands of the military. Victoria MacKenzie has other ideas. And she plans to uphold the Starfarer's original scientific purposes--the exploration of space, and the search for intelligent life--even if it means hijacking the ship..."--Pg. [4] of cover.
