In the little desert town of Bootstrap stands a huge metal shed. In the
shed men are building an object that can change the history of mankind.
It is a Space Platform. Propelled to an orbit 4000 miles from Earth this
platform will serve as the starting place for man's exploration of
mysterious outer space.
SPACE PLATFORM tells the exciting story of a young man helping to build
this first station. With scientific accuracy and imagination Murray
Leinster, one of the world's top science-fiction writers, describes the
building and launching of the platform. Here is a fast-paced story of
sabotage and murder directed against a project more secret and valuable
than the atom bomb!
