The Jovian Astronautical-Biological Orbital Laboratory, a.k.a. "the Can", is the only home 17-year-old Matt Bohles has ever known. Concerned about the aging space station's failure to find evidence of alien life on Jupiter or its moon, the cost-conscious powers back home have determined that all non-essential personnel must be evacuated. Now, unless Matt can somehow prove himself to be an invaluable member of the scientific team, he faces exile to a dangerous, frightening, and unfamiliar place: Earth.

The Galileo mission to Jupiter explored an exciting new frontier, had a major impact on planetary science, and provided invaluable lessons for the design of spacecraft. This mission amassed so many scientific firsts and key discoveries that it can truly be called one of the most impressive feats of exploration of the 20th century. In the words of John Casani, the original project manager of the mission, "Galileo was a way of demonstrating . . . just what U.S. technology was capable of doing." An engineer on the Galileo team expressed more personal sentiments when she said, "I had never been a part of something with such great scope . . . . To know that the whole world was watching and hoping with us that this would work. We were doing something for all mankind." When Galileo lifted off from Kennedy Space Center on 18 October 1989, it began an interplanetary voyage that took it to Venus, to two asteroids, back to Earth, and finally on to Jupiter. The craft's instruments studied Jupiter's enormous magnetosphere and its belts of intense radiation. The spacecraft also sent off a planetary probe that accomplished the most difficult atmospheric entry ever attempted. After this, the craft spent years visiting Jupiter's moons and delving into their structures and properties. This book attempts to convey the creativity, leadership, and vision that were necessary for the mission's success. It is a book about dedicated people and their scientific and engineering achievements. The Galileo mission faced many significant problems. Some of the most brilliant accomplishments and "work-arounds" of the Galileo staff occurred precisely when these challenges arose. Throughout the mission, engineers and scientists found ways to keep the spacecraft operational from a distance of nearly half a billion miles, enabling one of the most impressive voyages of scientific discovery.

United States Space Force: Project Jupiter is a stand-alone novel. On June 25, 2018, right after President Donald J. Trump announced he would pursue establishing the United States Space Force, author Paul D. Escudero saw how enormous that decision was and immediately started writing this book. The United States Space Force concept goes beyond NASA, manned space flight, and American and International Space programs. There is a great possibility that aliens exist on multiple planets scattered throughout the universe. America is great at mitigating every threat known to mankind, except the alien threat. United States Space Force is a fictional tale that describes how this all manifested into a galactic-bound space force. About the Author Paul D. Escudero started his journey in electronics in 1972. His initial training included vacuum tubes and transistor circuits because they existed in large numbers at the time. A lot of thoughts that go into this story are derived from the fact that Escudero worked on equipment used in the Venus Space probe, Space Shuttle, nuclear-powered submarines, ships, aircraft carriers, and certain other aircraft. He continues dabbling in electronics.

Jupiter is used to being a planet of one, and she likes it that way. But then a cousin, who Jupiter never even knew existed, comes from Ethiopia to stay for the summer, and Jupiter is put in charge of taking care of her. A lyrical and memorable story of family, friendship, and community—perfect for fans of Katherine Hannigan’s Ida B and Holly Goldberg Sloan’s Counting by 7s. Jupiter and her family have spent their lives on the road, moving from town to town in a trusty old van and earning their living by playing music for tourists. But when their van breaks down, Jupiter’s mother rents an actual house in Portland for the summer so Jupiter’s annoying cousin Edom, recently adopted from Ethiopia, can stay with them. Luckily, Edom doesn’t want to be in Portland any more than Jupiter wants her there, and the two hatch a Grand Plan to send Edom back to her mother. In the process, Jupiter learns that community and family aren’t always what you expect them to be. A sweet, genuine story with themes of community, immigration, finances, family, and taking care of the environment that will appeal to fans of Cynthia Lord and Lynda Mullaly Hunt.

Let's get working on the Jupiter Ignition Project - The Greatest Achievement in Human History! It may seem like Science Fiction, but there is a planet not so very far away that is at war with the greatest threat that exists in the universe - self-annihilation. They have come to the point in their technology that within the next 50 to 100 years they are either going to murder all life on their planet, and then their own mass suicide OR they are going to turn their technological prowess into the greatest achievement by any life form anywhere in the universe. It's going to be one or the other. But this is happening not on another planet way out there in Space somewhere. It's not science fiction any more. This is our fate staring us right in the eyes here on the Earth - the little blue marble. WE now have in front of us the method of saving all life on this planet by simply igniting the planet Jupiter into our second sun. Jupiter is known by astronomers to be a 'Gas Giant'. This isn't a large man with indigestion. It's a classification for planets that start to develop into a sun, but never quite accomplish spontaneous fusion combustion that is sufficient to burn millions of tons of Hydrogen per second. Jupiter is composed of hydrogen just as the sun is, but that hydrogen never became hot enough or compressed enough to start the chain reaction under its own power. The good news is that the Lawrence Livermore lab, a part of the Dept of Energy, within the United States Government recently cracked the code for a human made fusion reaction and actually created fusion in the lab. They used over 100 high-powered lasers to aim them at a single spot in a magnetic bottle filled with Hydrogen atoms. When they got it right, the fusion reaction took off and produced more energy coming out than they had to put into it to get it started. The planet Jupiter is nothing more than a guzzilion tons of hydrogen atoms all contained and compressed in the largest magnetic bottle we have found in this part of the universe. And so it became obvious to this writer that the time may have come where we could actually achieve the same fusion reaction on a larger laboratory, our own solar system and pull off what people will someday know as the 'The Greatest Achievement in Human history' - the ignition of a planet into a star, our 2nd sun. This book not only explains the way that this can be done by SpaceX from Elon Musk, Blue Origin from Jeff Bezos and NASA from all of us, but it also shows in great detail how this could be our cheapest, fastest and best way out of our present conundrum of requiring so much energy produced by fossil fuels which is the basis of our whole economy and turning all of that infra-structure away from the climate emergency that it causes and towards the entire planet running on Solar Power - which will double as soon as we can turn Jupiter into our 2nd sun. There are risks of course. It could be the biggest flop in history, or the 2nd sun could produce so much more heat in our sky that we make things worse. It is my best educated guess that the gradual over-warming of our planet due to a second sun will actually be less than it is now due to the fact that we will no longer be forced to use fossil fuels any more, which will soon produce zero CO2 poured into the atmosphere and therefore, the greenhouse effect will decline, actually cooling our Earth and perhaps even in time to save us and all future generations. Of course, educated guesses are not good enough to base trillions of dollars of investment that will be used to do this thing, and that's why this book is also a call to action to start the research and development of this concept so that we can have the confidence to go ahead with it or replace it with something better Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and NASA are the key individuals we need to join hands and get it started now.

Here is Dr. Wernher von Braun’s incredible story – from his early years in Germany, where he gave birth to modern rocketry, to his arrival in the United States and his launching of the first American satellite, the first man on the moon and other stunning space exploration feats. “Every page of Wernher von Braun’s life is a monument to the drama of adventure. Few people have been fighting so hard and, indeed, very few have been subject to so much criticism, so much jealousy, so much defeat—yet, very few have lived to be honored and to harvest the fruits of so many wonderful victories as has this man.” Author Erik Bergaust has had the advantage of knowing von Braun as a friend, hunting and fishing companion, space business associate—and biographer—for more than twenty-five years. Thus, he has been able to present a dramatic portrait of an important personality and a 20th century hero.
