    About this ebook

    The slavery of weight, which chains us to this planet and to the ground, is far more serious than we appreciate, simply because we have always been "earthbound". But, sooner or later, it will be possible to bring about such conditions as our author describes so vividly in this excellent short story. When it does, aviation will be helped tremendously, and indeed the conditions of our entire world will be revolutionized literally.

      IF I HELD A HAMMER CORRECTLY, the way my father taught me, and then swung it down on a rock, the rock would break. I would have caused that to happen. I would have transferred kinetic energy from my arm to the hammer’s handle and then to the hammer’s

      The Fog Test

      “I FAILED THE fog test?” I sputtered in disbelief. How? It was the simplest part of the weather exam—the “fog” wasn’t even real. All I’d needed to do was complete an easy obstacle course wearing virtual reality goggles, which I did . . . just not in
