Powersat Audiobook (Free)

Two hundred thousand feet up, things move horribly incorrect. An experimental low-orbit spaceplane breaks up on reentry, dropping to earth over a trail hundreds of miles long. And in its wake is the start of the most important mission in the annals of space.

America needs energy, and Dan Randolph is determined to provide it to them. He dreams of an array of geosynchronous powersats, satellites that gather solar technology and beam it to generators on Earth, freeing America from its dependence on fossil about Powersat fuels and breaking the power of the oil cartels forever. However the wreck from the spaceplane offers left his firm, Astro Manufacturing, around the edge of bankruptcy.

Even worse, Dan discovers that the plane worked properly till the moment that saboteurs knocked it from the sky. And whoever brought it straight down is normally willing-and able-to kill again to keep Astro grounded.

Now Dan must thread a dangerous maze. The visible threats are poor enough: Rival companies need it him out and manage his dreams. His previous lover really wants to co-opt his unlimited-energy idea like a campaign plank for the applicant she’s grooming for the presidency. NASA and the FAA need to turn off his maverick firm. And his lenders are breathing down his throat.

Making matters a lot more dangerous, a global organization of terrorists sees the powersat as a threat to their very own oil-based power. And they’ve determined how to utilize it being a weapon within their battle against the West.

A sweeping mix of space, murder, romance, politics, secrets, and betrayal, Powersat will need you towards the edge of space and the dawning of a new world.
