The crew members of Centaur II return to Earth in the late twentieth-first century after completing over 30 years on an exploratory mission to the first extra-solar planet having life. Since their departure, terrorism and global warming have radically changed the people and environment of their home planet. This story, the conclusion of a trilogy, follows the paths of three of the crew as they strive to uncover what became of their family, friends, and careers, and to rebuild their lives.

This sequel to the author's Gliese 4 depicts mankind's first exploration of an extra-solar planet, the fourth one orbiting Gliese 876, and its surprising ecology. The novel also follows the efforts of the stranded human colony to confront its own mental and physical problems, and to repair its crippled ship for a return to Earth. Then hostile representatives of an alien master race arrive!

A story of the discovery of life on a planet outside the solar system, and the mounting of the first interstellar mission to explore it.

Compared with a spaceship in distress, going to hell in a handbasket is roomy and slow! (note: very short story)
