    People out there who enjoyed the harder sci-fi of "The Expanse" are recommending:

    - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silo_(se…
    - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beacon_2…
    - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrapol…

    I'll put them on my list to check out.

    Silo: People in a post-apocalyptic world trapped in an underground silo. The world outside is lethal. Or is it? Yes, it is. Or is it?

    Beacon 23: Two people stuck on a dark-matter "lighthouse" at the edge of settled space. Slow-going world-building.

    Extrapolations: Climate future anthology with loads of famous actors.

      Project Beacon
      Beacon was one of America's first satellite programs. A balloon satellite, its objective was to study atmospheric density at its orbital altitude and to be the first United States satellite visible to the naked eye. Booster problems caused both orbital attempts to end in failure. Background Beacon was an International Geophysical Year (IGY) satellite program developed by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics Space Vehicle Group at Langley under aeronautical engineer William James O'Sullivan, Jr. O'Sullivan held the belief that measuring the air density at orbital altitudes would be of critical importance to a space agency and that a simple balloon satellite, several meters in diameter, would be well suited to the task as their relatively large size and low mass make them especially sensitive to air drag effects. After the Soviets launched the first artificial satellite, Sputnik 1, on October 4, 1957, a high priority was placed on orbiting an American satellite that would be visible from the ground. O'Sullivan's balloon satellite would accomplish that purpose, as, once in orbit, it would...
