Between the Strokes of Night (1985)Charles Sheffield
Wolfgang Gibbs, suffering severe space adaptation sickness, records a detailed report on the condition and care of experimental animals, especially a Kodiak bear named Jinx in hibernation-like stasis aboard Salter Station. Despite his physical struggles, Wolfgang conveys the stability of Jinx's state and the advanced preparations of the station, while also expressing concern about worsening geopolitical and environmental crises on Earth that threaten space operations. The chapter highlights Wolfgang's resilience and the tension between scientific progress in space and Earth's deteriorating situation.
