As starting point I chose one short story written by Clarke: The nine billion names of God written in 1953, which [...]

Ayer en la mañana muy temprano por intermedio de mi buen amigo Hugo me enteré del fallecimiento de Arthur C. Clarke.
Uno de los más influyentes escritores de ciencia ficción dura y una de las figuras que más me han inspirado y cuyos escritos, ideas y libros de divulgación científica hicieron parte de mi niñez en [...]
