2061 by Arthur C. Clarke
2061 is the year Halleys Comet makes its next pilgrimage to the inner Solar System and the year centenarian Heywood Floyd encounters once again the alien Monoliths. Near Jupiter the transfigured forms of Dave Bowman and HAL the computer are Heywoods only chance of survival if they too are not now alien beings.
