Robert A. Heinlein was a prolific and influential science fiction writer known for his imaginative storytelling and exploration of social and political themes. Here are five facts about Robert A. Heinlein:
Prolific Authorship: Heinlein wrote numerous science fiction novels, short stories, and essays throughout his career. Some of his most well-known works include "Stranger in a Strange Land," "Starship Troopers," and "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress." His writings often reflected his libertarian and individualistic views.
Military Service: Heinlein had a career in the military before becoming a full-time writer. He graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1929 but was medically discharged due to pulmonary tuberculosis in 1934. This experience influenced some of his military-themed science fiction works, such as "Starship Troopers."
Political and Philosophical Themes: Heinlein's works often delved into political and philosophical themes. He explored topics such as individualism, personal responsibility, and the role of government in society. "Starship Troopers" is an example of a novel where he presented his views on civic duty and the military.
Hugo, Nebula, and Bram Stoker Awards: Heinlein received numerous awards for his contributions to science fiction literature. He won four Hugo Awards for Best Novel, three Retro Hugo Awards, and was the first Grand Master of the Science Fiction Writers of America. In addition to his science fiction accolades, he also received the Bram Stoker Award for Lifetime Achievement in 1984.
Influence on Science Fiction: Heinlein is considered one of the "Big Three" science fiction writers of the Golden Age, along with Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke. His works have had a lasting impact on the science fiction genre, and many contemporary authors cite him as an influence. Despite controversy and criticism for some of his views, Heinlein's legacy in science fiction literature remains significant.

L'interruttore giusto, quello con l'etichetta MIN, sul pannello giusto, fu toccato dal dito giusto, dal tecnico giusto.
