Hell Ship of Space by Frederic Arnold Kummer, Jr.:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
Enjoyable read that contains the first reference to the phrase 'space shuttle' that I know about. A group of pleasure-seekers leave Earth to rendezvous with a big passenger liner lying off the Moon.

(San-Ray Projector from 'Hell Ship of Space')
When the ship is taken over by escaped prisoners, how will the protagonist escape death and turn the tables (hint: the answer involves superconductivity!) Select
an invention:
Escape Port Emergency egress from a space ship for one person.
|
San-Ray Projector Device produces a habit-forming, nerve-tingling ray that clouds the mind.
|
Space Shuttle A space-going vessel for trips from the surface of a planet to a ship in orbit, and back.
