I'm often a fan of 40s science fiction, but the first story is a fairly standard engineer story of how stupid bureaucrats are, and the second story was a torturous problem story, and a purely engineering problem story at that. How do you contact a ship in deep space, since it's so small and space is so big? Same way they kept contact with the much smaller, much lower power Voyagers over a much greater distance. Yes, that post-dates the 1940s, but it was always strictly an engineering problem. Both of them had me rolling my eyes. Maybe I'll pull it off the shelf in the future, but I doubt it. A Selection of short stories set on a communication station 'Venus Equilateral', between earth and venus. Heavy on the Science, this is true golden age stuff written mostly in the 1940s. In parts it even has a little comic book feel to it. Extremely inventive science, even if you know nothing of science (like myself) the futuristic valve tube technology is a blast. Venus Equilateral is of it's time in some ways : As a result female characters are mainly present as, fiances, wives, sisters etc. There really is something about this book. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
