| Summary | "Operation Interstellar" by George O. Smith is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story revolves around Paul Grayson, an engineer from the Bureau of Astrogation, who embarks on a mission to Proxima Centauri I to measure distances in a cosmic survey. As he prepares for launch, he becomes embroiled in an unexpected incident involving a robbery and a mysterious woman, which hints at more complex intrigues surrounding his journey. At the start of the novel, the reader is introduced to Paul Grayson as he enjoys a leisurely walk to the spaceport, reflecting on the mundane aspects of life before heading into the vastness of space. His routine is disrupted when he is attacked and robbed, leading to a chaotic encounter with a woman named Nora Phillips, who is both an interest and a potential ally. The opening sets the stage for a blend of space exploration, danger, and personal connection, paving the way for the larger themes of interstellar communication and the intrigue that surrounds Paul’s mission. As Paul grapples with the robbery and his immediate goals, the foundation for suspense and adventure within an expansive universe is established. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
