Episode description

Space Tug by Murray Leinster audiobook.

Genre: scifi

In the early days of spaceflight, Joe Kenmore has already helped put the first Space Platform into orbit, a landmark satellite that could open the way to the stars and shift the balance of power on Earth. Now he is assigned to a new and more dangerous job: crewing a hard working space tug that must ferry supplies, equipment, and defensive systems up to the Platform while rival nations and hidden saboteurs look for any chance to bring the project down. Joe and his team, the steady Chief Bender, the capable Haney, and the fearless little Mike Scandia, have to master unfamiliar procedures, unforgiving physics, and the constant risk that one small malfunction can become a death sentence. When a critical operation goes wrong and they find themselves suddenly cut off from safety, the mission turns into a race against time to regain access, keep the Platform functioning, and stop an enemy plot from turning humanity's first foothold in space into a disaster. Space Tug blends brisk action with hands on engineering problem solving, teamwork under pressure, and the tense politics of a near future space race.
