He writes contemplative and optimistic science fiction with adventure, touches of romance, and a helping of real science. He is a professor emeritus at Minnesota State University Moorhead, a former national professor of the year, author of several award-winning science fiction novels and short story collections and coauthor of two science education books including Learning to Read the Earth and Sky (NSTA Press, 2016).

He previously worked at the Johnson Space Center in Texas and at Washington University in St. Louis where, among other things, he studied how a lunar colony might mine oxygen from the local rock.
