Phillip P. Peterson

Phillip P. Peterson studied aeronautics in Aachen until 2003, absolved his Master's studies in Nuclear Applications and worked at the German nuclear reactor Jülich 2 until 2006. His doctoral thesis about radiation damage at ITER was completed in 2010,[http://raumvektor.de/uber-mich/ Phillip P. Peterson ], Kurzvita in seinem Autorenblog, online unter raumvektor.de after which he went into research at RWTH Aachen University. From 2012 until 2014, he worked in the management of observation systems of Earth for the German Aerospace Center. While working there, he expanded an idea into his first novel Transport. After becoming a success after its publication in 2014, it motivated him to expand another idea into his second novel Paradox: On the Brink of Eternity. It also became a success after its publication in 2015, subsequently launching his career as a full-time science fiction writer.
