I read this in college, and 20 years later I still enjoy all the big broad concepts and how Robinson sneaks in so much real science in to a fictional narrative. Makes me want to apply to the Mars missions. 😅

A lot of this was kind of boring, so the ending snuck up on me. I had a hard time connecting to most of the characters until the very end of the book, when things ramped up considerably, and this became a much more enjoyable book. The last 100 pages bumped this book up a star and convinced me to start reading the next book immediately and maybe keep my momentum going.
