Where are you, Mr. Biggs?

"Where are you, Mr. Biggs?" by Nelson S. Bond is a science fiction story that whisks readers to a future where voyaging through space is as normal as driving a car. The adventure follows a spaceship crew headed to Uranus, but their trip takes a turn because of Lieutenant Lancelot Biggs; though eccentric, his genius inventions and goofy mistakes create a rollercoaster of problems and acts of bravery. As the crew of the spaceship "Saturn" travel to their destination, Captain Hanson and Sparks start to get nervous about Biggs because his mind is elsewhere, since he is getting married soon! While hurtling through space using Biggs’s special velocity intensifier, they are thrown into danger as their path veers too close to Jupiter. With courage, Biggs puts himself on the line to save the others, changing the ship’s velocity so they can get away from Jupiter safely. Readers are left wondering if he is gone forever, or if he actually sailed into another dimension. The author looks at big ideas, like love, loyalty, and sacrifice, when facing tough situations.
