Neal Stephenson can rock me to sleep tonight

[justalurkr]

Am reading Seveneves, Stephenson's latest speculative fiction...no, this is as hard as science fiction gets, so science fiction offering.

Nightmare the first: the people of Earth become aware they're ALL GONNA DIE about two years before it happens.

Nightmare the second: being on the same space vessel as a bi-polar cannibal.

Bonus nightmare: orbital mechanics infodumps.
