HAT UNIMAGINABLE DANGERS....
WHAT TERRIFYING ALIEN CREATURES....
WHAT UNEXPLORED WORLDS...
. . . exist in the vast stretches of the universe not yet penetrated by man? The expeditionary ship Space Beagle had been sent to find out. Its crew, eminent scientists from every field of human knowledge had been specially trained and equipped to overcome any danger they might encounter. But their greatest peril was aboard ship-where advanced technical knowledge, in the hands of ruthless men, could become an irresistible force for destruction.

The book, apparently the inspiration for the brilliant movie Alien, is a fix-up made out of the following earlier stories;

  • Black Destroyer (1939)
  • War of Nerves (1950)
  • Discord in Scarlet (1939)
  • M33 in Andromeda (1943)

Don't know much about this one, suspect it's Korean. If someone knows Korean please check out this page and let me know what it says.

Probably Voyage of the Space Beagle, probably Turkish. I would appreciate someone verifying this by checking out this page. Or this.
