Terraforming Earth

Terraforming Earth

Jack Williamson
3.4/5 ( ratings)
When a giant meteor crashes into the earth & destroys all life, the small group of human survivors manage to leave the barren planet & establish a new home on the moon. From Tycho Base, they're able to observe the devastated planet & wait for a time when return will become possible. Generations pass. Cloned children have had children of their own, & their eyes are raised toward the giant planet in the sky which long ago was the cradle of humanity. Finally, after millennia of waiting, the descendants of the original refugees travel back to a planet they've never known, to try to rebuild a civilization of which they've never been a part. The fate of the planet lies in the success of their return, but after so much time, the question is not whether they can rebuild an old destroyed home, but whether they can learn to inhabit an alien new world--Earth.
