Rama II

About “Rama II”

This 1989 novel by Arthur C. Clarke and Gentry Lee follows the discovery, at the dawn of the twenty-third century, of a second enormous alien spacecraft hurtling toward the solar system, years after the first Rama ship proved that life existed elsewhere in the universe. A crew of Earth's best and brightest is assembled to rendezvous with the vessel, armed with everything known about Raman technology and culture.
