''Orbit'' was a long-running series of anthologies of new fiction edited by Damon Knight, often featuring work by such writers as Gene Wolfe, Joanna Russ, R. A. Lafferty, and Kate Wilhelm, who was married to Knight. The anthologies tended toward the avant-garde edge of science fiction, but by no means exclusively; occasionally the volumes would feature some nonfiction critical writing or humorous anecdotes by Knight. Inspired by Frederik Pohl's ''Star Science Fiction'' series, and in its turn an influence on Harlan Ellison's ''Dangerous Visions'' volumes and many others, it ran for over a decade and twenty-one volumes, not including a "Best-of" collection which covered the years 1966-1976. ==Orbit 1== Volume 1 was published in October 1966. Algis Budrys described it as an example of "a book that represents science fiction well, but not to any extraordinary extent."〔"Galaxy Bookshelf", Galaxy Science Fiction, October 1966, p.157〕 Table of contents: *"Introduction," by Damon Knight *"Staras Flonderans," by Kate Wilhelm (ss) *"The Secret Place," by Richard M.
