Enterprize, a starship operating on draining dilithium crystals on its return flight to Starfleet Headquarters, is abruptly and inexplicably transported back through time to 1945-just several days before the atomic bombing of the City of Hiroshima, Japan on the 6\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e of August.That date is especially significant to Helmsman, Hiraku Satō, because of his storied Japanese ancestry. In response, Satō proposes to the starship's Commanding Officer, Captain James T. Dirk, the most extraordinary proposal: that the powerful capabilities of the Enterprize could be brought to bear to intervene to prevent the destruction of Hiroshima by atomic bombing.This uncommon predicament presents the starship's crew with several compelling conundrums-the least of which is returning to their rightful time and space after attempting to accomplish the most hopeless and impossible of missions: changing the course of human history!This remarkably unique adventure takes ship-and-crew to Arizona's Meteor Crater; inside of a remote Japanese Internment Camp; and even aboard the B-29 Superfortress bomber known as the Enola Gay! In a profoundly moving moment, Mister Svock, Chief Science Officer, mind-melds with the bomber pilot, Paul Warfield Tibbets, to betray his most private and intimate thoughts.In a climactic conclusion, Helmsman Satō steals a ship shuttlecraft to embark on a potentially suicidal, kamikaze-style mission!All of the most familiar characters-Dr. Leonard Hatfield, Chief Medical Officer; Montgomery Stewart, Chief Engineer; Nydia Umaru, Communications Officer; and Pasha Chekhovsky, Navigator-are all in striking attendance! And all are posed with the most provocative dilemmas.This spell-binding, Trek-like adventure is wholly unlike any other you've ever experienced before or since!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joseph Jr. Covino\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0943283760\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780943283760\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Epic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.26d","brand":"Joseph Jr. Covino","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48659932381439,"sku":"9780943283760","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/starflight-to-armageddon-joseph-jr-covino-9780943283760","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
