Moon Rocks

The year is 2040, and the place is Moon Base Alpha, humanities first step toward colonizing our natural satellite. Life on the moon is as one would expect: there’s plenty of science and exploration, but also driving around in moon rovers, eating suspicious reclaimed food, hosting space tourists, and managing tons of little robots. Unbeknownst to everyone back on Earth, however, three astronauts have embarked on a complicated get-rich-quick scheme involving a meteor shower, diamond mining, a media firestorm, lunar road trips, plenty of rocket science, and—most of all—hoping things don’t explode.
