Von Neumann's War by John Ringo

In this new series, Mars is changing. Seemingly overnight the once "Red" planet is turning to gray. Something is happening, something unnatural. A team of, literally, rocket scientists figure out a way to send a probe, very fast, to Mars to determine how and why.

Taylor, who goes by the moniker Doc Taylor among his friends, has a doctorate in optical science and engineering, a master's degree in physics, and a master's degree in aerospace engineering from the University of Alabama in Huntsville, as well as a master's degree in astronomy and a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from Auburn University. During the past sixteen years, Dr. Taylor has worked on different programs for the Department of Defense and NASA. He is now working on a number of advanced propulsion technologies, as well as very large space telescopes, space-based beamed energy systems, and next-generation space launch concepts. Doc Travis is also a black belt martial artist, a private pilot, a SCUBA diver, a mountain bike racer, a triathlete, and the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist of many hard rock bands in his spare time. He and his wife Karen, as well as their daughter, currently reside in Alabama.
