The Steps of the Sun
By Walter Tevis
In a post-petroleum future, a billionaire suffers impotence, explores distant planets, prospects for radiationless uranium (he lost me there), and battles politics.
I finished it, but it was kind of a chore.

Just think: there was a time when the man who wrote The Hustler – acclaimed, noir-ish novel about shooting (and sharking) pool – could also write the sci-fi classic, The Man Who Fell To Earth, and no-one would give him shit about his literary 'career arc'.

The difficulty in finding the 2nd .gif file is probably due to Prof. Farnsworth also being a regular character in #MattGroening's #Futurama.
I assume as an homage to the #WalterTevis novel & #DavidBowie film.
