Space Cadet is a 1948 science fiction novel by Robert A. Heinlein about Matt Dodson, who joins the Interplanetary Patrol to help maintain peace in the Solar System. The story translates the standard military academy tale into space: a boy from Iowa attends officer school, sees action and adventure, takes on responsibilities far beyond his experience, and becomes a man. It was published as the second installment of Heinlein's juvenile series and inspired a media franchise around the Tom Corbett character, including the 1950s television series Tom Corbett, Space Cadet, and a radio show that made Space Cadet a colloquial phrase whose meaning later changed. popular culture
