Camelot 30K

Über

Camelot 30K is a hard science fiction novel written by the United States physicist Robert L. Forward. It was published in 1993 by Tor Books. The story mainly deals with the concept of human contact and interaction with a kingdom of intelligent alien life that dwells on a frozen world where the ambient temperature is only 30 K or −240 °C. In Camelot 30K, Forward uses a lot of low-temperature chemistry-based fact to explain the alien's unique biology and anatomy.
