On the surface her rescuers find their resources stretched to the limit by the mercilessly unpredictable conditions of a totally alien environment.

Intricate & carefully considered

Clarke is a master. Such exquisite detail at a time when survival in space really was just a lot of conjecture. Very enjoyable.
