The desperate attempt to colonize another planet to rescue an Earth society that has disintegrated due to the disastrous collapse of all financial institutions. The very near future...life on Earth has degenerated into a stark division between people who have financial wealth and security and those living in desperate poverty within wasteland settlements. George Armstrong, multi billionaire head of a Space Station re-supply corporation embarks on a project to address these acute social problems by colonizing another planet. He embarks on a literally epic earth-moving project to re-engineer a planet within our solar System and to physically re-locate it to a new orbit close to Earth by deliberately striking it with asteroids. Then to alter the hostile environment so that it can sustain and be survivable for mankind. The planet selected for relocation is Venus.
