The DCR team welcomes back author, Larry Niven & author, Matthew Harrington. We will be talking to both gentlemen about The Goliath Stone which is a visionary new tale. Twenty-five years ago, the Briareus mission took nanomachinery out to divert an Earth-crossing asteroid and bring it back to be mined, only to drop out of contact as soon as it reached its target. The project was shut down & the technology was forcibly suppressed. Now, a much, much larger asteroid is on a collision course with Earth & the Briareus nanites may be responsible.
