Eleven-year-old Jameson O''Malley''s dad is on Mars. The only way to see him, other than squinting into the night sky, is through the JICC - short for Jameson''s Interplanetary Communication Console.

When a new family moves onto Base Ripley, Jameson makes an unlikely friend in Astra Primm, daughter of the country''s leading climatologist, who died in an explosion on Mars.
