From the mind of visionary sci-fi master Philip K. Dick, author of blockbuster adaptations like Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report, comes a thrilling short story of humanity's struggle against a powerful alien foe in Mr. Spaceship. In a distant future where humanity is locked in a losing war with the enigmatic "Yuks"-- a race with unparalleled biotechnological prowess-- a daring solution is born. Enter Philip Kramer, a resourceful scientist leading the cutting-edge attempt to turn the tides of war: creating a spaceship controlled by a human brain. Kramer's ailing professor, in a heartrending act of self-sacrifice, volunteers his brilliant mind for the project. But as the limits of human ingenuity collide with the cosmic, the professor's brain undergoes a startling transformation, seizing control of the vessel and dismantling all preconceptions of power and ambition. Captured in the spaceship's cold embrace, Kramer and his wife must grapple with the chilling realization of humanity's self-destructive nature, as they face an agonizing choice: follow the professor's vision for a new world, or risk everything in a fight to reclaim their future. Mr. Spaceship delivers a gripping tale of desperation, sacrifice, and the lengths that people will go to for the sake of progress. With its potent fusion of military strategy, alien invasions, and a philosophical exploration of man's indomitable spirit against all odds, this tantalizing gem from a trailblazing legend will leave you pondering the choices you'd make in the face of cosmic adversity.

This book traces the development of diverse British cultures of outer space, utilizing key geographical concepts such as landscape, place, and national identity. It examines the early visionary ideas of writers H. G. Wells and Olaf Stapledon, the ambitious British space programme of the 1960s, and narrations of British cultural identity that accompanied the space missions of Helen Sharman, Beagle 2 and Tim Peake. The exploration of British cultures of outer space throughout the book helps understand the emergence of the British Interplanetary Society. It also explains its significance in pre-war and post-war periods through an analysis of the roles of influential figures such as Arthur C. Clarke and Patrick Moore. The chapters explore utopian and dystopian representations of space exploration, examine the mysterious phenomenon of UFO culture, and consider plans for humanity’s imagined future across interstellar space. Throughout the book geography is advocated as a home for critical studies of outer space, illuminating its significance in terms of the reciprocal relationships between exploration and the sublime, science and the imagination, Earth and cosmos. As an emergent field of research in the social sciences, this book makes an excellent contribution to the study of the outer space in Britain and abroad developing a distinctive kind of outer spatial geography with major implications for future teaching and research.

The very first work of its kind, Celebrating the Universe! is a tour of the wonders of the heavens, with a focus on the "soul" of the night sky. Astronomer and author James Mullaney has written this travel guide to the stars from a metaphysical and spiritual perspective in addition to a scientific one. The unique unifying theme throughout is the personal benefits of communing with these marvels firsthand—the joy and heady excitement of participating in the great cosmic drama unfolding nightly overhead. Everything the budding stargazer and celestial pilgrim needs for this journey is contained within this volume, from how to observe the sky (with the unaided eye and binoculars) . . . to what to see—and why! This book covers: • The Sun, the Moon, and all of the planets • Comets, asteroids, meteors, and artificial satellites • Variable and exploding stars, colorful double and multiple stars, and glittering star clusters • Eerie glowing nebulae, our majestic Milky Way, and remote galaxies Through exercises and reflections, you’ll also learn about little-known aspects of stargazing such as therapeutic relaxation, celestial meditation, expansion of consciousness, spiritual contact, and astral travel; and you’ll explore profound concepts such as our heritage as children of the stars (we are made of stardust!) and our cosmic destiny as citizens of the universe.

Combining the rigor of anthropology with the devotion of a disciple, this book faithfully lays bare the comprehensive teachings of the man who may be the Sufi Saint of the Age.
