Schelling Anchorite Produced from Analog Science Fact Science Fiction, November, 1962. E-text prepared by Greg Weeks, Mary Meehan, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Anchorite" by Randall Garrett is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. The story centers around Captain St. Simon, an anchor-setter tasked with securing asteroid anchors for space tugs, exploring the procedural, scientific, and personal aspects of life in the belt. The narrative delves into themes of individualism, teamwork, and the complexities of human life in the harsh environment of space. The opening of the novel introduces Captain St. Simon as he navigates a spacecraft near an asteroid, preparing to place an anchor into its surface. Alongside his eccentric companion, Jules, he conducts meticulous calculations to ensure the safety and success of their mission. The chapter shifts between St. Simon's technical expertise, the challenges posed by the asteroid's centrifugal forces, and his interactions with the crew aboard his ship, the "Nancy Bell". As the story unfolds, the reader gains insight into the hazards and intricacies of work in space, setting the stage for broader conflicts involving safety, industry, and the consequences of carelessness among workers in the belt.
