Publisher's Synopsis
Thursday 28th May 2071: the day the Anglo-Indian Salvage 2 Rocket launches. Its mission: to clean up space; to remove from Earth's orbit over a century's worth of man-made junk. From the viewing window of a nearby space station, the Doctor and Flip have a unique view of Salvage 2 as it sets about its essential task - and of the disaster that unfolds when Salvage 2 ecounters something it's not been programmed to deal with. Something not of human manufacture. Back on Earth, the Doctor fights to save Flip from becoming part of a 500-year tragedy being played out in orbit, hundreds of miles above.
