Poul Anderson, Harvest Of Stars, 52.
At
Alpha Centauri, the Lunarians colonize the asteroids. Perun a thousand
kilometers at its widest, is too small for cities, but does have a north
polar spacefield approached by roads surrounded by domes, masts,
pyramids and colonnades. The spacefield has hemicylindrical buildings
and a control radar. The Lunarians have built much in few years and are
now constructing a spaceship that might travel to Proxima Centauri and
further.
Observe how Harvest Of Stars transcends its earlier chapters and also how much information is packed into each of the later chapters.
