A large celestial body will hit and destroy Earth in a decade. How will humanity respond? Now would people continue to work to save a remnant of the human race? The author says yes, I have doubts. Given the paranoid and authoritarian nature of the future America, I had a hard time believing when an unexpected group of children show up and ask to overload the ship bound for Aurora, they were welcomed, especially given the long training and suitability screening the designated crew went through. But it is fiction.A good quick read and enough loose ends to be resolved in the rest of this series.
