The Upper Limit

Dr. Gloria Schuldenheiss, brilliant lead astrophysicist at the National University of New Zealand, has just won the highly coveted Project of the Universe Prize She is spearheading a project to determine the strength of the overall mechanics of our solar system and the Milky Way Galaxy. She selfishly deceives Ray, her star graduate astrophysics student into joining the project and coming out into the universe, assuaging her own loneliness. In her science team's quest for greater knowledge and a safer home base, will Earth and our solar system survive the unscrupulous Dr. S's machinations? Or will her supreme scientific dominance end the four billion year orbital existence that Earth and the universe have maintained without human intervention. The Upper Limit by Pia Lord is a swift, superbly intellectual, yet romantically driven sci-fi story as twisted as the DNA double helix. The Upper Limit will takes you on a red shifted, time-drifted trip to what might be considered the cosmological horizon of the universe.
