I fully intend to write this science fiction, but the fact that this COULD be reality (and I think the biology is tractable) should be sparking some sort of policy debate. There is actual capital flowing into these ventures... Speculative fiction is ten years behind where the money is.

Pandora's Star is the first book of a series that explores many of these themes as well.

As frequently happens, Bruce Sterling was there. Pick up a copy of _Holy Fire_.
