Publisher's blurb: Feynman’s Mining Station is a mining craft that latches onto asteroids and extracts critical celestial metals needed to maintain humanity’s diaspora in the Vault of Night. It is only one of many such stations, but each represents a significant investment and their loss a material casualty for humanity. The last communication was received from the station ceased two standard days ago. Something is wrong, but the station is too valuable to simply abandon or scuttle- it must be investigated and recovered, if at all possible, which will require sending a later crew to fully detach it from the asteroid. What of the crew? Can the station be salvaged? Or is it lost to another mystery of the endless void.
