Description

Isn't Mars going to get crowded with all of the colonists who are lining up to go there? Why not head to another, even nearer planet -- a friendlier planet for human life -- Venus! Yes, I know about how bad conditions on its surface are. I was as disappointed as you were with the information that the first Russian and American probes sent back from the earth's sister planet back in the '60's. No Edgar Rice Burroughs princesses and swordsmen for us! Still, fifty kilometers above Venus' surface is the most hospitable habitat for humanity outside of our own world, which is heading in the direction of Venus's surface. Let intrepid reporter Frieda Vogel take you on a voyage to the Venusian Regatta, a fleet of tensegrity spheres in which foresighted settlers live above it all. Could the cloud-cities of Venus be for you?
