O'Neil cylinders

From: Dr. Omni [mailto:dromni@...]

On
Sunday, I finally found "The Higher Frontier", a title that I tried to get
via overseas order at Amazon.com and Barnes and Nobles a couple of months
ago, but it was out-of-stock.

I've been meaning to let the list know: The Space Frontier Foundation now
has a little website up specifically on the subject of the book "The High
Frontier". Tons of info on it and O'Neill, and some artwork too. This is a
project that Peter Thorpe started, and that I put the finishing touches on.

http://www.space-frontier.org/HighFrontier/

One note, though. The "Buy this book" links currently go to an on-line
purchasing systems that the SFF is soon going to dump, and it has not been
updated with the High Frontier info. As always, though, the book can be
purchased from the SSI catalog:

http://www.ssi.org/
http://www.ssi.org/high-frontier.html

http://www.ssi.org/catalog.html

The new addition has much new material by Dyson, Lewis, Tumlinson, and
others. Also, there's a bonus CD-ROM with MPEGs of presentations by O'Neill
and SSI, and PDFs of the two major NASA studies on space settlement.

Regards,

Mike Combs
