Biografía del autor:

About the Author Since age four, Randall DeArman has loved astronomy and all types of science fiction, especially about space. He grew up in the 1960's watching Mercury, Gemini and Apollo launches in the classroom. Emmett DeArman, his father, worked for a NASA subcontractor in Alabama from 1962-1969. He also worked briefly with Werner Von Braun in Huntsville, Alabama. This inspired Randy to begin building and flying model rockets in 1968. He still writes, builds, and flies regularly with wife Verna, aka "Rocket Babe." Randy and Verna are members of the National Association of Rocketry and their local NAR club, the Birmingham Rocket Boys. Their website, Verna & Randy's Rockets at vernarockets.com has been on the web for 9 years. They have two monthly features: Fire & Smoke and Verna's Photo Of The Month. They are dedicated to paying forward by helping anyone who is interested begin the exciting adventure of rocketry, especially students. DeArman has been writing about hobby rocketry for almost a decade and has produced articles for several websites and forums over the years, including a feature article in NAR's Sport Rocketry Magazine. Recently he was inspired to write a sci-fi novel featuring many of his favorite things like space and rockets and his greatest love, Verna.
