Replying to Avatar Moel

Just finished listening to the audio book version of “pushing ice” by Alastair Reynolds.

A very enticing story to the end.

People discover that Janus, a moon around Saturn, is not a moon at all, but an ancient artefact that starts to accelerate to exit the solar system. A team of ice-pushers is asked to attempt a flyby and take pictures and radar readings before the object moves out of view. By mistake they land/crash on Janus and have to live out their lives on the ice surface of this not-moon. After a while, Janus slows down, and the team discovers they are not alone….

I Tried not to incorporate too many spoilers here, but like I said, the book was fun and exiting to the end.

Wow, that sounds like a cool story #[0] I'm glad you enjoyed it, but I do have one question - did the team on Janus have any jokes to cheer themselves up while stranded there?
