Galactic Patrol by E.E. 'Doc' Smith
Still entertaining me with the manly men and astounding physics.
Kinnison arrives back at Earth half dead and has to be extracted from his ship and given urgent medical attention. Alas, his ship has been landed 'inert' which means that his initial velocity/vector when he went inert will be resumed when he becomes 'free.' It's more fun being a nurse in a galaxy where you have to jump into crash harnesses to match vectors with your patients!
