Simmering has penned a novel that is quite an impressive mash up of Asimovs parallel universes and Cartlands historical romance stories. Worthy of every readers attention and admiration, this book is not to be just frazzled away into the dusty shelves.

Seafloor observatoriesâ€"unmanned systems of instruments, sensors, and command modulesâ€"will have power and communication capabilities to provide support for spatially distributed sensing systems and mobile platforms. Illuminating the Hidden Planet is a voyage to the bottom of the sea, advancing oceanographic science further through long time-series measurements, to discover the mysteries of the deep that have, until now, avoided scientific opportunity.

Humans have been intrigued with the sky and what lies beyond since the beginning of time. They looked at the moon, the stars and the planets while they wished to unlock their secrets. An unexplainable yearning, a strange homesickness guided their attempt, a subconscious one that always suggested that humans may have originated from another celestial object. In other words, earth may have been a stop gap for them, perhaps a temporary stay-over. Humans have always been amazed by the creatures of this planet: birds, fish, mammals, worms, amphibians, insects . . . how easily they all fit into their natural environment. Humans, on the other hand, are restless and battle endlessly and struggle with earths environment. In our yearning to belong to a natural environment, we humans had created an idolized and mystified place that we described in the Bible as the Garden of Eden. What if this place actually existed? This book suggests that humans original home, humans natural environment, does existnot in tales or legends but somewhere out in our planetary system. Read this book and you may agree that it makes sense. You might even conclude that this concept is not (so) far-fetched. Earth 101: The Hidden Planet explores mankinds ability to extend its domain and attempt to shed its earthly handicaps.
