Hello!
I'm D.W. Patterson and I am a writer of Hard Science Fiction - Old School.
While plot and character drive the storytelling in my writing, physics also plays an important role. However, this is not known physics but highly extrapolated future physics.
This extrapolated physics is not "just made up" but has its genesis in current research or popular science books. This is an important point for me, although it may seem to be "made up" science and technology, it has the possibility, however slightly, to come true. At least, at this point, to my knowledge, nothing I've written can be ruled out.
Thank you for reading.
L4 Station: A Novel
The first crew replacement ship to the L4 point of the Earth-Moon system carried the new personnel needed to continue mining the asteroids found there.
It also carried thirteen-year-old Raymond Jones and his younger brother Roger, along with others their age.
Raymond is a bookworm and also from the Moon which makes him a two-time loser to some of the other kids.
But he is determined to not let the bullies, the dangers of space, or his lowly status defeat him.
And others are starting to notice his determination, especially Cindy.
The Remembered Earth Universe covers the science and technology of the next hundred years, as mankind moves into cislunar space (defined as that space in and around the Earth-Moon system and slightly beyond), and takes tentative steps to destinations farther out.
L4 Series
Now after the Cislunar Series and the Lunar Series, the story of man's place in space continues with the asteroid mining of the L4 Series.
The story moves to the first settlement/station beyond the Earth's Moon. The Earth-Moon Lagrange point, L4, 19 million miles away would be the newest outpost for man's hopes and dreams.
