The Enemy Stars
''The Enemy Stars'', written by Poul Anderson, is a science-fiction novel published in 1959 by J.B Lippincott in the US and by Longmans in Canada. Originally published in ''Astounding Science Fiction'' under the title ''We Have Fed Our Sea__'', it was a nominee for the 1959 Hugo Award for best novel. The original title refers to a line in a poem by Rudyard Kipling.
==Premise==
In the scientific speculation that underlies the story, Humanity has reached out to the stars in ships that move at half the speed of light. At that speed the ships will take years, decades, even centuries to reach their destinations. And yet the ships' crews serve month-long tours of duty, teleporting to and from their bases on Earth and other worlds instantaneously through what Anderson calls a mattercaster. At the end of Chapter 5 Anderson provides a description of how a mattercaster works.
In 1967 Gerald Feinberg hypothesized the existence of tachyons as particles represented by the imaginary solutions of relativistic quantum wave equations, such as the Klein-Gordon equation.〔Feinberg, G. (1967). "Possibility of Faster-Than-Light Particles". Physical Review 159 (5): 1089–1105〕 To accommodate that new hypothesis Anderson rewrote his description.
