This is my very first original story that I have been working on for almost a year now and I devoted a lot of my time with it within the year. I appreciate it if you guys can point out any consistency errors and possibly some grammar errors as well, as well as make my characters seem more diverse, personality-wise.Chapters: |
 | From TIMNA to MARS | a.y.anouchi | Novel | 0 | n/a | May 16, 2013 |
Summary:Following the many comments I received from the TNBW members on my "SPACE MISSION" chapters, I completely restructured and re-written the book. I even changed its title to "From TIMNA to MARS". The excessive consumption of rare earth metals needed to manufacture many products endangers the global techno-industrial revolution. Jet engines, oil refineries, color television, hybrid cars and even smart-phones are a few whose disappearance would take earth back to the eighteenth century. "From TIMNA to MARS" offers the reader a plot interwoven with events of unmanned space missions. It unfolds with helpful notes outlining the background in which the novel is set. With twists, it is a suspenseful scientific thriller for non scientists. The archaeological world is stunned by the discovery of a rare earth rhenium deposit in the TIMNA copper mine in the Israeli Negev. Pure rhenium has never been found anywhere on earth. It can only be created in a laboratory. Nanotechnology researchers attempt to understand the secrets which make rhenium unique. Inspired by interpretations of Einstein’s theory that not all of the elements in the universe ended up on earth after the big bang, archaeology Professor Avner Amram is impassioned by his idea of searching for rhenium on asteroids. His team designs an instrument which remotely detects rare earth deposits on planets. NASA and the Israel Space Research Authority, adopt his plan. Lunar spacecrafts crash and Russians attempt to destroy a Mars orbiter. CIA, KGB, SVR and Mossad agents are embroiled in espionage and murders. Avner and his associates are drawn into the mayhem. "From TIMNA to MARS" addresses a global dilemma of rare earth elements depletion.Chapters: |
