Atlas 2 (Atlas Series book 2)
“She would have preferred to spend her birthday at home, but she worked for Juneyao Spacelines, a local service responsible for chartering passengers between the moons of the gas giant Yihuà (Tau Ceti II), and she went where her job took her. She was a commercial pilot, really just a fancy term for a babysitter since the shuttles flew on autopilot most of the time. Of course, if a shuttle crashed, the port authorities always blamed the human pilot.
In addition to the official and rather bori...ng name of Tau Ceti II-c, the moon was also known as Hong Caodi (Fragrant Meadow), and was one of three terraformed satellites orbiting the gas giant. Yihuà resided in the habitable zone of the star, allowing all three moons to become beautiful places of sprawling forests and vast meadows whose trees were filled with birds and whose grasslands fed buffalo and wild horses. The animals were bioengineered from Earth stock of course.
Shangde City was the only major population center on the moon, and was built on the permanent light side.MoreLess
