Download or read book Battle Station written by Ben Bova and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Battle Station collects short science fiction stories and nonfiction articles about the future of military space operations written by six-time Hugo Award winning author Ben Bova, whose hard science fiction has predicted the Space Race, virtual reality, the Strategic Defense Initiative (Star Wars), and more. From the Foreword: "The sixteen stories and articles in this book deal with the prospects of war and peace in orbit, together with other glimpses of possible futures. Most of them treat directly with the military aspects of space. Others are devoted to allied facets of the human race’s expansion into the solar system. The nonfiction articles are based on the latest factual information available at the time of their writing, interpreted through my own experiences and opinions. The fiction shows what mere facts cannot: how tomorrow’s technology will affect individual human lives. ... In the sixteen works assembled here you will see: •How an International Peacekeeping Force might actually work--even when betrayed from within. •How energy projectors firing pinpoint beams of light may spell doom for the "ultimate" weapon. •How baseball may become a tool for international diplomacy. •How computers may one day replace politicians. •How telephones may become small enough to be implanted in your skull. •How benign extraterrestrials may have already influenced human history. Nobody wants the military in space. But they will be there. They are already there. If we are wise, we will see to it that they serve to protect the peace and defend the human race against attack." At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
Book Synopsis Battle Stations by : Stephen L. Moore
Download or read book Battle Stations written by Stephen L. Moore and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-11-02 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true story of the valiant men who gave their all to save the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown—and changed the course of the Pacific War. On June 4, 1942—six months after the attack on Pearl Harbor—Yorktown’s crew began the carrier’s final battle against Japan’s infamous aircrafts. Hotshot fighter pilot Lieutenant Scott McCuskey attacked from the air in his Wildcat, becoming the Navy’s second-ever “ace in a day.” Carpenter Boyd McKenzie worked tirelessly to repair Yorktown before a fresh air strike. Critically injured gun crew member George Weise fought for his life as the ship threatened to capsize. Meanwhile, Pharmacist’s Mate Second Class Warren Heller raced to save the lives of bloodied gunners and sailors by evacuating them before time ran out. The stories of these heroes and many other brave servicemen bring the gripping narrative of Yorktown’s final thirty days to life, as she fights in the near back-to-back Battles of Coral Sea and Midway. Through unpublished memoirs and interviews with Yorktown’s last surviving veterans, acclaimed author Stephen L. Moore offers up a new and compelling amount of a pivotal month in World War II, while honoring the courage of those who served.
