为什么值得读
- 刻画了聚集发明家的英雄式远见型企业家
- 展现民间资本角逐航天旅游与探月的情景
- 探讨太阳能烧结等超越纯科幻的技术构想
1949年，Heinlein 写下了这个故事，讲述了一位预见到载人航天飞行的未来不能交由政府主导的企业家。他的主人公 D.D. Harriman 冒着名誉扫地、倾家荡产乃至丧命的危险，只为让梦想变为现实。Heinlein 故事的先见之明在当今一位放眼月球之外、心系火星的企业家身上得到了印证。人类在太空中的未来不能寄托于政府，政府的低效会让这一切化为泡影。尽管该故事已近七十年历史，但在今天看来比以往任何时候都更加切中现实。

罗伯特·海因莱因的《出卖月亮的人》（The Man Who Sold the Moon）http://www.amazon.com/Man-Who-Sold-Moon/dp/0671578634（剧透：http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Sold_the_Moon）。然后，图个过瘾的话，可以接着看《严厉的月亮》（The Moon is a Harsh Mistress），其中……

……没错。把任何东西送上太空都是巨大的挑战，希望很快市场上能有几家私企在真正的太空旅行市场上展开竞争。想看篇不错的中短篇小说的话，可以找找罗伯特·海因莱因的《出卖月亮的人》（The Man Who Sold the Moon）。然后我们再来聊聊埃隆·马斯克是不是小说里 DD·哈里曼这个角色的转世。
…true. Getting anything into space is a big challenge and hopefully soon the market will have several private companies competing in a real market for space travel. For a nice short story, look up "The man who sold the moon" by Robert Heinlein. Then we can discuss whether or not Elon Musk is the re-incarnation of the fictional character DD Harriman.
荐书：罗伯特·海因莱因的《出卖月亮的人》（The Man Who Sold the Moon）。剧情中涉及的一个设定是虚构月球表面铺满了钻石。
Book recommendation: The Man Who Sold the Moon by Robert Heinlein. One of the things handled in the plot is the fictional assertion that the moon is covered in diamonds.
去读读海因莱因的《出卖月亮的人》（The Man Who Sold the Moon）吧，里面极好地刻画了一个英雄式创业者兼远见家。我觉得这比“英雄发明家”更符合马斯克身上的神秘光环；他倒不怎么像是发明东西的人，而更像是个收集发明家的人……
read heinlein's "the man who sold the moon" for a very good portrait of a hero-entrepreneur-visionary. i think that's more in line with musk's mystique than hero-inventor; he's not so much the man who invents things as the man who collects inventors…
……相干。比如天空中存在扰动，会导致热量剧烈变化。（有一篇来自专业太阳能聚光炉的论文讲过这个，我得再找找）阅读推荐：科利·多克托罗（Cory Doctorow）的《出卖月亮的人》（The Man Who Sold the Moon）。它也探讨了太阳能 3D 烧结的概念（但忽略了局限性）。所以我深信，整个概念具有巨大的潜力，绝不仅限于娱乐性质的科幻——它……
…cohaerent. There are fluctations in the sky for example, that will make the heat changes drastically. (there is a paper about this from a professional solar furnace, I need to find again) Reading tip, "The man who sold the moon", from Cory Doctorow. Which also explores the idea of solar 3D sintering (but ignores the limitations). So I do strongly believe, the whole concept has big potential, beyond entertaining SciFi - it is…
海因莱因的《出卖月亮的人》（The Man Who Sold the Moon）里就有类似的情节，在空间站和飞船爆炸之后，公司开会时：——⁂——“很好。现在来看公关报告——各位先生，请注意第一项。负责……的副总裁”
There’s something like that in Heinlein’s The Man Who Sold the Moon, after the explosion of a space station and ship; in a company meeting: —⁂— “Very well. Now the public relations report—let me call attention to the first item, gentlemen. The vice-president in charge…
