Europa Rising
Description:... In this third installment of the Europa Chronicles, tyrannical political authorities ruthlessly exploit a health scare to implement draconian policies in the name of fighting the pandemic, but ultimately use these powers to increase their own power and authority and establish a dystopian dictatorship at the expense of individual liberty and freedom. A group of enterprising and creative entrepreneurs and inventors arises to challenge the status quo and work to restore free market capitalism and limited government. Meanwhile, a large ocean containing more water than all of Earth's oceans combined, along with a high probability of being inhabited by aquatic extraterrestrial life forms, is discovered on Jupiter's beautiful and exotic moon, Europa. This dramatic discovery significantly increases interest and enthusiasm for the space program, as private sector industrialists help finance a project to establish a human colony on the frozen surface of Europa to expand human knowledge of the universe as well as the improvement of the human condition on Earth.
