About Les Johnson Books
Les Johnson is a futurist, author, and NASA technologist. Publishers Weekly noted that "The spirit of Arthur C. Clarke and his contemporaries is alive and well . . ." when describing his novel, Mission to Methone. His most recent novels, The Spacetime War and Saving Proxima (with coauthor Travis S. Taylor), were published in 2021. In his day job at NASA, Les is the Chief Technologist at the Marshall Space Flight Center where he leads the center's development of next-generation space technologies--including solar sails, which he believes will eventually take us to the stars.
