About this ebook
Tom Godwin published his first of approximately thirty sf stories, "The Gulf Between", in Astounding in 1953, and soon after wrote his most famous and compelling tale, "The Cold Equations" (August 1954 Astounding Science Fiction), in which a girl stowaway on a precisely payloaded one-person scoutship must be jettisoned by its pilot, because to transport her extra mass would require more fuel than the ship carries, making disaster inevitable and also dooming the colony to which the ship is heading with the medical supplies necessary for its survival. "The Cold Equations" is a notable example of the mid-1950s science fiction genre.
