Space Cowboys

When NASA replaced the Air Force for outer atmospheric testing, Team Daedalus was pushed aside and a chimpanazee got the honour. The team retired, but the dream of going into space never died. Now, over four decades later the Russian satellite Ikon has suffered a system failure that Russian officials insist will cause a total communications blackout in their country.

Now retired, Frank Corvin is the one man alive who can do the job. This is the chance of a lifetime but Frank won't take it unless he can bring the only crew he trusts to do the job with him. Team Daedalus is back in action.
