If so, what happened? I read it back in the early 70s, and pretty much all I remember (and this is dicey) is:
Some energy source is discovered on Pluto, and it is “beamed” across the Solar System to Earth.
Something goes wrong with the beam.
That has a set of complications.
That’s pretty much it, so far as my memory. I’d re-read it,but it’s packed away somewhere, and it’s not important enough a question for me to go try to dig it out.
