NASA/Trek : Popular Science and Sex in America

Bok av Constance Penley
This wry and highly readable investigation of the role of space travel in popular imagination looks at the way NASA has openly borrowed from the TV show Star Trek to reinforce its public standing. It also celebrates the work of a group of the show's fans who rewrite its story-lines in porno-romance fanzines. Constance Penley advocates that scientific experimentation, and devoted to exploring inner as well as outer space.
