"A best-selling science-fiction novel, first published in 1986, by a Pulitzer Prize-winner. In December 1999 a multinational team journeys out to the stars, to the most awesome encounter in human history. Who - or what - is out there?" - amazon.co.uk synopsis

This was a great read! One of those thought-provoking, plausible, gripping pieces of sci-fi. Although much of the physics went over my head, it was fascinating, and I expect I will read and enjoy it for a second time at some point.

In this morning's post, thank you very much bigcurlyoz! I'm going to enjoy this!

Indeed, thought-provoking! And very enjoyable too. I love the way Sagan writes about the long struggle between science and religion, and the turn in the end of the story, when the five need trust (or belief), and the world isn't ready to trust them.
