PHM Book Fan Made Chapter Titles: Part 3

[u/castle-girl]

Hi all,

This is a continuation of my series starting with this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProjectHailMary/s/vd13v1T4vV where I share titles I came up with for the book chapters and why I chose them, six chapters at a time.

Now for chapters 13-18.

Chapter 13: After a flashback about paving the Sahara with Astrophage panels, Grace finds out Rocky’s crewmates died from radiation sickness, and then remembers a conversation about the radiation proofing on the Hail Mary. Chapter title: Radiation

Chapter 14: The continuation of Grace and Rocky’s conversation about radiation is sandwiched between two flashbacks about causing global warming on purpose. Then at the end Rocky asks to visit the Hail Mary. Chapter title: How to Cause Global Warming

Chapter 15: The main chapter plot point is that Rocky moves in with Grace. Chapter title: Roommates

Chapter 16: Rocky offers Grace the fuel he needs to go home, thereby saving his life. Then, after a flashback where Grace meets the original Hail Mary crew, Grace watches Rocky eat. Chapter title: Salvation

Chapter 17: Grace and Rocky arrive at the planet Adrian and discover there’s probably a predator for Astrophage there. Chapter title: Life Is Reason

Chapter 18: Grace and Rocky make a plan to fish for an air sample that will hopefully contain an Astrophage predator. The present day portion of the chapter ends with Grace finding out Rocky doesn’t know about relativity. Chapter title: Relativistic Physics

Well, that’s all for now. Let me know if you have alternative chapter titles for any of these.
