"It's a funny thing." These are words that haunt Brucie Clark. She's being stalked by a murderer, and is stuck with an arrogant, way too serious Office of Law Enforcement agent who is assigned to protect her life and help solve the case he'd pushed aside."--Provided by publisher.

Chatwin has a knack for generating emotions of love and hate, while Talia is seen by all as one feather short of becoming an angel.

Book One of the series, titled "When we built a space elevator", follows the people producing the elevator at Ellemental Space in New Mexico, as they conspire with the Pentagon to launch it before anyone finds out and can stop it.Enough Rope is a hard science fiction series by Phillips, exploring a future in which the first space elevator was built in the 20s. This is a disruptive technology, something we've become familiar with, but there are fortunes being made, building rockets. The rocket set are not happy and face financial ruin if the elevator is successful. What will they do?

SYNOPSIS: Linda Phillips followed the light and found her joy after emerging from the overwhelming darkness of losing her son to suicide following a lifelong struggle with severe depression. In the decades since, the state of mental health care has declined. In this tender retelling of the most painful experience of her life, Phillips not only gives raw insight into the reeling effects of suicide on her family and herself, she examines the process that helped her regain herself in the aftermath. Her insights offer a hopeful, effective solution. A very simple idea that can be initiated by any passionate, caring person. In this case, the focus is on musicians and the creative community as well as the community at large. It's called Nuçi's Space.

In this, the second book in the series, the Pentagon plans to build the first space elevator, secretly. But secrets are hard to keep and this disruptive technology is not welcome to the rocket industry. Would they kill to stop it?

The concept of a Space Elevator started over a century ago but started to move from science fiction to reality in the 1990s with the promising advent of a super strong material, carbon nanotubes, that theoretically had the strength to build a ribbon into space.NASA started investigating the concept which led to the publication of the first detailed analysis of whether it was possible, written by Dr Brad Edwards, in a NIAC paper.Early excitement of an immediate breakthrough, maybe even constructing one by 2010, gave way to the reality of producing carbon nanotubes of the required strength, outside the laboratory, in commercial quantities. As I write, in 2020, we are still awaiting this breakthrough and the project has moved back to the late 20s, maybe the 2030s or 2040s.But it will happen, and when it does, it will replace rockets as the easier and cheaper way to leave Earth, opening up space travel the way airplanes opened up world travel.This series examines the technical aspects and how it will be deployed.The first book in the Space Elevator 2020 series covers the history of this exciting project.

We're returning to the Moon... using rockets. Where are we at? Will we really land humans on the Moon in 2024?This book details the present-day activity in Moon exploration and planned lunar landings, not only by the USA but also by China, India, Russia and all other countries.We look to the future, perhaps in another 10 years, when rockets are replaced by the installation of a space elevator on the Moon in the book "A Space Elevator on the Moon" available on Kindle.

We're returning to the Moon... using rockets. Yet setting up a space elevator on the Moon is easier than doing the same on Earth, thanks to the low gravity of the Moon. A ribbon doesn't need to orbit the Moon, unlike Earth. The pull of Earth's gravity means we can hang a ribbon "down" towards Earth, a ribbon that could stretch halfway to Earth. So, when will it happen? Will it be the USA that constructs it, or China?The concept of a Space Elevator started over a century ago but started to move from science fiction to reality in the 1990s with the promising advent of a super strong material, carbon nanotubes, that theoretically had the strength to build a ribbon into space.NASA started investigating the concept which led to the publication of the first detailed analysis of whether it was possible, written by Dr Brad Edwards, in a NIAC paper.Early excitement of an immediate breakthrough, maybe even constructing one by 2010, gave way to the reality of producing carbon nanotubes of the required strength, outside the laboratory, in commercial quantities.

As soon as the first elevator is completed, we will want to build a second elevator, a third ... and so on, We consider the location issues. Locations have implications for managing ribbon movement, risk and safety measures, and avoiding collisions with space debris, asteroids and these are covered.
