Synopsis

Liu Cixin: "All my works are parodies of "A Space Odyssey"!" This masterpiece in the history of science fiction literature has influenced almost all science fiction works in later generations! A grand idea about human exploration of space and ourselves! The second part of "A Space Odyssey"! A mysterious slate spanning 3 million years of history has prompted the evolution of apes into humans 3 million years ago, and now guides humans to sail deeper into space. Nine years after the failed Jupiter mission, the Discovery spacecraft is about to crash into Io. In order to save important data on the Discovery, the United States and Russia reached a cooperation, and a team led by Dr. Floyd went to Jupiter for rescue. However, what awaits them is an even greater mystery and danger. What is the purpose of the mysterious stone slab that has been staying on Jupiter? Is human civilization the master of the solar system? In "2010: A Space Odyssey," Arthur C. Clarke takes his ambitious vision one step further.

Reader comments

The characters in the book have distinct personalities, such as the bravery and determination of Dr. Freud, and the intelligence and humor of the HAL 9000 computer. And some of the famous quotes in it are also very profound, such as "Anything that appears once on earth should appear millions of times elsewhere in the universe." It made me start to think about the status of human beings in the universe. All in all, this is a great book worth reading!

This is a very excellent work. It is very difficult to write an excellent science fiction novel. What is rare is that it is not an imitation of another excellent work, but a first creation from scratch. A textbook that inspired many science fiction novels, he earned many tributes to him

It can only be said that this novel continues the style of 2001: A Space Odyssey, which is shocking and extremely shocking.

Is There Any Hard Science Fiction About the Three-Body Style?

It's best if it's not a routine like Starship Civilization that I've watched countless times.

A Science Fiction Novel Written Like Liu Cixin

I especially like Liu Cixin's science fiction novels, which feel refreshing to me. I don't really like the love stories between artificial intelligence and humans, reflections on human nature, and other human emotions in the science fiction background. I hope there will be hard science fiction works.
