Robert Heinlein wrote an outline for Variable Star in 1955, but it became a lost piece of history. Here is the true story. Most fans know the major works, but Variable Star remains a fascinating case study in what could have been. I look at how this forgotten project was meant to shape the genre and the specific tragedies that shifted its path away from being a finished masterpiece. Spider Robinson resurrected it but it still could have been more.
