Space Platform Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Platform Sequel: Space Tug. Produced by Greg Weeks, Louise Blyton and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Space Platform" by Murray Leinster is a science fiction novel written in the early 1950s. The story follows young Joe Kenmore, who is tasked with transporting crucial pilot gyros to a site where the first artificial satellite, the Space Platform, is under construction. As he journeys to Bootstrap, he becomes embroiled in sabotage, danger, and unexpected love, facing numerous threats from those who would prevent humanity's leap into space. At the start of the novel, Joe is aboard a cargo plane, nervously anticipating the delivery of the gyros that are vital to the Space Platform project. Conversations with the co-pilot reveal tension surrounding potential sabotage and clandestine efforts to undermine the space mission. The plane soon encounters trouble from an unknown assailant, leading to a dramatic and dangerous encounter that introduces Joe's determination to fulfill his responsibilities despite the chaos surrounding him. The opening establishes not only the technological aspirations of the time but also the human elements of fear and ambition, setting the stage for Joe’s journey through personal and external conflicts in the nascent arena of space exploration.
