In 1989, TSR introduced a number of new RPG campaign settings, including Spelljammer, which added a note of steampunk science fiction to the fantasy Greyhawk setting. TSR subsequently published several supplements and adventures for Spelljammer, including Greyspace in 1992, a 96-page softcover book written by Nigel Findley, with cover art by Tom Baxa, interior illustrations by David O. Miller, and cartography by John Knecht.[1]
