  Consignment by Alan E. Nourse - Revenge drives John Krenner to risk everything in a world ruled by relentless automation. But on the futuristic Rolling Roads, justice isn’t the only thing waiting at the end of the line. 
  The three shots ripped through the close night air of the prison, sharply, unbelievably. Three guards crumpled like puppets in the dead silence that followed. The thought flashed through Krenner's mind, incredibly, that possibly no one had heard. 
  He hurled the rope with all his might up the towering rock wall, waited a long eternity as the slim strong line swished through the darkness, and heard the dull "clank" as the hook took hold at the top. Like a cat he started up, frantically, scrambling, and climbing, the sharp heat of the rope searing his fingers. Suddenly daylight was around him, the bright unearthly glare of arc lights, the siren cutting in with its fierce scream. The shouts of alarm were far below him as he fought up the line, knot after knot, the carefully prepared knots. Twenty seconds to climb, he thought, just twenty seconds—

Whether you’re aiming to excel in road races, time trials, or mountain biking events, understanding the foundations of competitive cycling is essential for success. 
  At its core, competitive cycling is much more than just riding fast. It is a structured discipline that involves strategic planning, consistent training, and mastering various techniques. Each cyclist brings a unique blend of strengths and weaknesses, making it crucial to tailor training plans to individual needs and goals. Understanding the demands of different types of races—be it criteriums, stage races, or endurance events—is the first step in defining your path as a competitive cyclist. 
  Training plays a pivotal role in achieving cycling excellence. It is important to strike a balance between endurance, strength, speed, and recovery. Cycling-specific exercises and drills help refine pedaling efficiency, enhance power output, and improve overall performance. Additionally, structured training plans that incorporate both on-bike sessions and off-bike conditioning are key to building the physical and mental resilience required for competitive cycling.

  Birth of Modern Astronomy The:...

  Editors Charles River

  As interesting as the stories about Tycho Brahe are, chances are he wouldn’t be remembered if not for the important work he did, especially in the realm of astronomy. He lived in an era when the intellectual worldview of most in northern Europe was medieval in nature, influenced mostly by spirituality, mysticism, religion, and metaphysics. Brahe, however, was far-thinking in his outlook, taking advantages of the latest technological ideas and practicing empiricism to revolutionize the field of science. This work eventually led Brahe to cross paths with Johannes Kepler, whose laws on planetary motion would change everything.  
  Trying to define a man who had the qualities of a mathematician, astronomer, philosopher, inventor, and astrologer can prove difficult. But all of that can be ascribed to Johannes Kepler, one of the giants of his era who ushered in the Scientific Revolution and is often considered the first modern scientist. Kepler stood at a moment in time when the intellectual worldview of most in northern Europe was medieval in nature. Kepler, however, was far-thinking in his outlook. 
  	In his lifetime, Galileo straddled the epochs of the Renaissance and the Scientific Revolution, and it was his work and technological advances that helped usher in a brand new understanding of the solar system and the scientific method. Stephen Hawking himself has asserted, “Galileo, perhaps more than any other single person, was responsible for the birth of modern science." Of course, part of what made Galileo such a monumental figure was the fact that he was ahead of his time, and that he mostly refused to conform to the accepted dogmas of contemporary society.  
  In 1676, Sir Isaac Newton wrote in a letter, “If I have seen further it is by standing on ye sholders of Giants.” By the time he died, Newton had become science’s greatest giant, and every scientist who has followed him has stood on his shoulders.
