Full Description
In 2077 two carbon-nanotube “ribbons” link Earth’s oceans to a wheel-shaped station in geostationary orbit. The system moves food, medicine, and people for a fraction of rocket cost—unless something snaps.
Arlo Finch, on-call mechanic, thinks in wrenches.
Tamra Ruiz, chief engineer, measures miracles by the micrometer.
Efe Agbaje, rookie technician, believes the whole structure is worth the risk.
When an anonymous signal corrupts safety sensors, the elevator’s twin spines are forced into a countdown that no single crew can solve. Ice storms, solar flares, and board-room power plays are the usual in space.
Blending hard science, blue-collar humour, and a quietly optimistic view of cooperation, A Bridge To Orbit is a self-contained thriller for readers of The Martian and The Expanse who enjoy tense problems as much as plot twists.
The sky isn’t falling; it just needs kept up.
