Ray C. Noll is a largely undocumented science-fiction author whose known work appeared in 1955. Project Gutenberg lists two titles under his name: A Fine Fix and Flight Perilous!.
A Fine Fix, produced from the March 1955 issue of Astounding Science Fiction, follows an investigation into the unexplained losses of atomjet pilots and blends military aviation with psychological suspense. Flight Perilous!, published in the May 1955 issue of Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy, centers on a Mars-bound ship navigating a dangerous asteroid belt.
Beyond these stories and their original magazine appearances, little confirmed biographical information about Noll is readily available. His fiction remains accessible through Project Gutenberg, where both works are in the public domain in the United States.
