Robert A Heinlein Award
Entry updated 11 March 2024. Tagged: Award.
Award presented in memory of Robert A Heinlein for "outstanding published works in science fiction and technical writings to inspire the human exploration of space", under the auspices of the Baltimore Science Fiction Society. Award winners are selected by a jury of sf authors; following the initial presentation in 2003 to Michael F Flynn and Virginia Heinlein, almost all recipients have also been sf authors, with a natural skew towards the creators of Hard SF involving Space Flight.
