SUMMARY:Archival Adventures: He from Procyon
DESCRIPTION:It's time for an adventure! This week we return to author and 
 sci-fi historian Sam Moskowitz's list of sci-fi classics from his 1940 
 letter to the editor of Comet. Today's tale: "He from Procyon" by Nat 
 Schachner\, the fifth story deemed a classic in the letter. Schachner was 
 an American writer\, historian\, attorney\, and advocate for the 
 development of rockets and space travel. His story “He from Procyon” is 
 an early example of the type named by F. Orlin Tremaine as 
 “thought-variant” stories. This term described an idea-centered story 
 rather than an action-focused story. Learn more about Nat Schachner before 
 the show: https://sf-encyclopedia.com/entry/schachner_nat\n\nJoin our 
 community collections archivist\, Anthony Wright de Hernandez\, for a 
 livestream on Twitch! Every week we explore and discuss materials from 
 Special Collections and University Archives covering topics including 
 university history\, NASA pioneers\, architecture\, science fiction\, 
 cooking\, LGBTQ  history\, Black history\, urban legends\, and more.
