Green Comet

Elgin and Fran and the rest get a tour of Prime One, the main habitat for the people tending the laser array.

This reading is chapter ten of The Francesians, the third book in the Green Comet trilogy. Everyone is wearing clothes, which surprises Elgin. One of their hosts explains to Fran how the economy of the place works. Buzzard and Maria see him phone home afterward.

Elgin and Fran find significant differences during their tour of the site.

This reading is chapter nine of The Fancesians, the final book in the Green Comet trilogy. The people living and working at this laser facility don’t seem to have the high level of care that they are used to. Things look worn and neglected. Worse, they find signs of the privatization of their communal property. The ideals of the comet people seem to be deteriorating as much as the infrastructure.
