Book excerpt: What Is Jet Pack The equipment known as a jet pack, rocket belt, or rocket pack is worn on the back and employs jets of gas or liquid to propel the user through the air. Other names for this kind of gadget are rocket pack and rocket belt. The idea has been a staple in the genre of science fiction for almost to a century, but it didn't start gaining traction until the 1960s. Real jet packs have been developed using a variety of different mechanisms, but their applications are significantly more restricted than those of their fictional counterparts due to the difficulties presented by the Earth's atmosphere, gravity, the low energy density of usable fuels, and the fact that the human body is not suited to flight. Real jet packs are primarily used for stunts. As a result of the apparent lack of gravity and the absence of an environment that generates friction, the jet pack has found a useful use in extra-vehicular exercises performed by astronauts in space. A system that enhances a person's maneuverability and includes a jet pack as well as accompanying jets that are mounted to the arms is referred to as a jet suit. How You Will Benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: Jet pack Chapter 2: Jet engine Chapter 3: Ramjet Chapter 4: Aircraft engine Chapter 5: Jet aircraft Chapter 6: Turbojet Chapter 7: Scramjet Chapter 8: Rocket engine Chapter 9: Douglas D-558-2 Skyrocket Chapter 10: Propelling nozzle Chapter 11: Airplane Chapter 12: Bell Rocket Belt Chapter 13: Yves Rossy Chapter 14: Air turborocket Chapter 15: Armstrong Siddeley Snarler Chapter 16: Airbreathing jet engine Chapter 17: Powered aircraft Chapter 18: Flyboard Chapter 19: Société d'Etudes pour la Propulsion par Réaction Chapter 20: JetLev Chapter 21: Wendell F.

Book excerpt: From the six-time Hugo Award-winning author of the Voyagers series comes the next installment, book four, Ben Bova's The Return In the 1980s, an alien starship visited Earth. While investigating what appeared to be a sarcophagus bearing the preserved body of its builder, astronaut Keith Stoner was trapped and cryogenically frozen. After his body was eventually returned to Earth and revived, Stoner discovered that he had acquired alien powers. Using these new powers, he built a new starship and left Earth. Now, after more than a century of exploring the stars, Keith Stoner returns to find that the world he has come back to does not match the one he left. The planet is suffering the consequences of disastrous greenhouse flooding. Most nations have been taken over by ultraconservative religion-based governments, such as the New Morality in the United States. With population ballooning and resources running out, Earth is heading for nuclear war. Stoner, the star voyager, wants to save Earth's people. But first he must save himself from the frightened and ambitious zealots who want to destroy this stranger—and the terrifying message he brings from the stars.
