Refreshed and lava-burned from a red hot Io summer, we're back on the Leonov to take the ultimate orbital roller coaster ride - aerobraking!


As Soviet-American relations warm and mutual respect grows among scientists aboard the ship, the themes of loyalty, common humanity, and faith in each other return as Floyd and Irina share a death-defying experience.


Hyams and Clarke's odyssey for the perfect futuristic technique, the real-life science and strategy of aerobraking, and the recent maneuvers around Mars.


Sit down and strap in for a slingshot around Jupiter with Captain Kirbuk and the crew.


Plus: ballutes, burbles, and Boohbahs.
