A good idea, well worked out."--Astounding/Analog. Medical science has created a world of perfect people. No matter what birth defects or devastating accidents they suffer, science can fix them. No one is deformed or unattractive, except for a handful, who have suffered calamities beyond even the power of future surgery to perfect. They're Accidentals. Exiled on a tiny asteroid between Mars & Jupiter, to the rest of humanity the Accidentals are pathetic, crippled & deformed, half men & women, fractional organisms masquerading as people. So, when the Accidentals learn the 1st interstellar flight is in preparation they decide to hijack the ship & seek a world they can make their own. The stars are very far away & the exploratory trips will be long. But the medical skills which have kept them alive have also given the Accidentals incredible endurance & made them nearly immortal.
