A recurrent trope in sf, neh?  Recently re-read a quite impressive long
novella by Blish, `Get out of my sky', from Astounding in 1956 (and in an
antho with Poul Anderson's `Sister Planet' from 1959).  Bob Forward's
Rocheworld books (1982-1990), Bob Shaw's 1986-9 wooden spaceship trilogy
(where pi = 3.000).
