	David Starr, Space Ranger
		David Starr, Space Ranger is the first in a series of juvenile science fiction novels Isaac Asimov wrote in the early 1950s.
		This was in the middle of the cold war and the novel shows traces of this, both in its educational intent and in the nature of the social forces involved.
		The novel was written at the start of the cold war, when many concerned scientists, engineers and educators in the United States felt that their country, and what they considered to be the free world, was falling behind the communist bloc in scientific research and engineering developments.

	Review of David Starr: Space Ranger
		To David Starr, Space Ranger, these deadly incidents formed a terrifying pattern—they were clearly part of a clever and brutal scheme by an alien conspiracy to cripple Earth’s economic life and topple its government!
		This is the first of the six "Lucky Starr" novels, originally published in the 1950’s under a pseudonym as (it was hoped) the basis for a TV series.
		Lucky Starr himself is strangely bland, but Bigman Jones is interesting (and oddly reminds one of Harlan Ellison—Asimov has this strange obsession with short people which emerges in odd places, like here and The Currents of Space).

	Roaring Rockets - The Space Hero Files II
		SPACE PATROL: About all I can remember is scenes of two women in very short skirts climbing a ladder, sometimes facing away from the camera, sometimes facing toward it, a nice view either way.
		In the actual 1952 SPACE BUSTER comics, which I have now seen, the Commander Buzz Corry character was called Commander Brett Crockett, and the outfit he worked for was called, from panel to panel, the Space Patrol, or the Space Busters, or the Space Patrol again, indiscriminately.
		The SPACE CADET comics, published by Dell, were by far the most visible of the space hero comics of the early 1950s; Dell's lock on comics distribution meant that all their titles were displayed on news stands, even when it also meant the latest issues of other comics couldn't be displayed at all.

	Atomic Rocket: Sidearms
		In many SF novels, the captains of space passenger liners and tramp freighters will require all weapons capable of breaching the ship's hull to be surrendered and locked away for the duration of the voyage.
		And if you are a space pirate captain who often has to deal with mutiny, you might want to invest in a futuristic version of a duck's foot pistol.
		The same could be done with weapons in space: in vacuum you would be limited to a knife, and some kind of laser pistol or specialized slug thrower, but once you get inside the other ship, you can simply unzip the bag on your chest and pull out whatever kind of gun you like (e.g.

	B5TV.COM: JMS an Asimov fan? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		I've gotten to a part where Starr is dealing with beings of energy and saw something that parallels a quote in an episode of B5, sadly I don't remember the title.
		Also note that there is a space liner in Soul Hunter named Asimov, and Bester claims to have 'Asimov'ed Mr Garibaldi - a reference to the four laws of robotics in Asimov's Robot novels.
		The David Starr books are fairly obscure little space operas, and periodically go out of print, so it is very possible that JMS has never read them.

		One of them is the apparatus we use to detect the minute changes in hyperspace that happen just before a ship enters real space.
		It is true that we got each man’s consent to the Psychic Probe before they were hired on, but the Probe is not foolproof and for the short usage we allowed, the most accurate data it gave was each man’s general emotional makeup, not what underlying thought processes occured.”

		Lucky Starr ist der Held des nach ihm benannten Sammelbandes, der den Leser in sechs Detektivgeschichten quer durch unser Sonnensystem entführt — vom Mars zu den Asteroiden, von der Venus zum Merkur, bis hin zu den Jupitermonden und den Saturnringen!
		Die übertrieben positive Heldenfigur Lucky Starr und sein nahezu totaler Gegenpart als Begleiter sind heutzutage überholte Klischees, in den 50er/60er Jahren waren sie jedoch durchaus üblich.
		Vergleicht man Lucky Starr mit den Jugendromanen eines Robert A. Heinlein, erkennt man, welch fortschrittliche Botschaft Asimov damals transportierte.
