	hugo award - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
		The Hugo Award is given every year for the best science fiction or fantasy stories of the previous year, and for related areas in fandom, art and dramatic presentation.
		The Hugo Award itself was co-designed by longtime SF fan and booster Benedict Jablonski who based the trophy on a rocket-shaped hood ornament from an Oldsmobile 88.
		While "bests" had been voted upon at all conventions there were no awards until the 11th Worldcon (Philadelphia, 1953) and this was, at the time, considered a one-time event.

	Hugo Award for Best Novel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Awards given in one year are for works published during the previous calendar year.
		These were awarded 50 or 75 years after years in which World Conventions didn't give awards—note: no "Best Novel" Hugo was awarded at the 1957 convention, but Hugos were awarded in other categories, hence there can be no "Retro Hugo" for 1957 awarded in 2007.

	The Fountains of Paradise - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Fountains of Paradise is a 1979 novel by Arthur C. Clarke.
		Subplots in the novel include human colonization of the solar system and the first contact with extraterrestrial intelligence.
		Although the hyperfilament is constructed from "continuous pseudo-one-dimensional diamond crystal" [pg.45] in the novel, Clarke later expressed his belief that another type of carbon, Buckminsterfullerene, would play the role of hyperfilament in a real space elevator.

	Campbell award (best novel) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		Unlike other major science fiction awards, such as the Hugo and the Nebula, recipients are selected by a panel.
		In 1994, no award was given; this was due to a breakdown in the nomination process, not because no novel was judged worthy.
		The award ceremony has been held in a number of places over the years, but since 1979 has been held at the University of Kansas, where it has become the focus of a weekend-long conference that also includes discussions of the writing, illustration, publishing, teaching, and criticism of science fiction.

		Selection of nominees for the final Award voting shall be done by a poll conducted by the Worldcon Committee, in which each member of either the administering or the immediately preceding Worldcon as of January 31 of the current calendar year shall be allowed to make five (5) equally weighted nominations in every category.

		The thing that's great about this novel, is that whatever motivational forces were in place to drive Cherryh in developing the character Mallory as a star-cruiser captain, she succeeds beautifully.
