Diamonds in the Sky is a collection of astronomy-based science fiction stories 
edited by Mike Brotherton and funded under his National Science Foundation 
grant AST 05-07781.  The purpose of the anthology is to provide stories with 
ample and accurate astronomy spanning a range of topics covered in 
introductory courses.  Instructors in high school and college may these 
stories useful, as some students may learn concepts more easily through story 
than from lecture.  Fans of science fiction with good science should also 
enjoy these stories.  Contributions include both original stories and reprints 
from some of the top science fiction writers working today.  Special thanks to 
Jeremy Tolbert, Scott Humphries, and Nicole Wade for their efforts.
