Written just as the space age was dawning, these stories imagine young people at the controls. A cadet chosen from two hundred becomes the first man into space; others race around the sun, crew the starship Centaurus, fly a mercy mission to the Moon, explore Pluto, face a ghost ship and a peril from outer space, and one signs on as a space steward.
