Found this book at random, and very glad that I did. Though it is 8th in a series, you would have fooled me. I followed it with no issue. A vividly written exploration of political vs scientific values, and how scientific often aligns with heart. "Rogue" explorers chase a transmission into space against their governments will, a long and taxing ordeal despite the far-future technology, passing through walls of time and discovering life in ways they never could have expected... despite this, the book shines with very human values and feels warm
