A slow-burning, nonviolent, extremely hard science fiction story about moving the Earth. When a state-of-the-art space telescope discovers a renegade extrasolar object in the Oort Cloud that will hit the Earth in a hundred years and destroy it, many want to evacuate the planet for Mars. Astronaut Peter Olander proposes a different plan of action: move the Earth. A Lever And A Place to Stand is a century-spanning engineer-'em-up about scientific problem-solving, bold ideas, hard physics calculations, and incremental progress towards a seemingly impossible goal. Written by author Andrew Stanek, who no amount of force can move from his writing desk.
