I grew up during a time when space exploration was all the rage and I cut my teeth on books by Arthur C. Clarke, TV shows like LOST IN SPACE, and of course the movie adaptation of one of Clarke’s books, 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. My hubby and I sometimes talk about how we thought that by now we’d be able to either live on the moon or on a space station and wonder why it is that we’ve fallen so behind in what seemed so plausible so many years ago. Of course, now there’s a space race going on again with the various tech billionaires trying to outdo each other with rockets, moon bases, etc.
It kind of makes me wonder why I never thought to write a book set in space? What do you think? Would you be interested?
