Someone has already mentioned Stephen Baxter, but as he is such a prolific author, in slightly different sub-genres, I thought I would mention three of his books that are some of my favourite sci-fi novels:

Voyage: a believable depiction of a NASA expedition to Mars.

Titan: even more adventurous--this time NASA goes to Titan; again very believable with a nice unexpected coda.

I have read both Voyage and Titan several times.

Evolution: this also stands out as one I will have to read again, although I can't remember much of the plot now!
