Brian Michael Stableford () este un scriitor britanic de științifico-fantastic care a publicat mai mult de 70 de romane. Primele sale cărți au fost publicate sub numele de Brian M. Stableford, dar în cele mai recente a dispărut inițiala din mijlocul numelui și au apărut sub numele Brian Stableford. De asemenea, a folosit pseudonimul Brian Craig pentru câteva lucrări foarte timpurii și, din nou, pentru câteva lucrări mai recente. Pseudonimul derivă din primele nume ale lui și ale unui prieten din timpul școlii din anii 1960, Craig A. Mackintosh, cu care a publicat împreună o lucrare foarte timpurie.

Biografie
Născut la Shipley, Yorkshire, Stableford a obținut o diplomă în biologie la Universitatea din York, în 1969, înainte de a face studii postuniversitare în biologie și mai târziu în sociologie. În 1979 a obținut un doctorat cu tema "Sociologia științifico-fantasticului". Până în 1988, a lucrat ca lector în sociologie la Universitatea din Reading. De atunci a fost un scriitor cu normă întreagă și un lector cu frecvență redusă la mai multe universități pentru cursuri pe teme precum scrierea creativă. El s-a căsătorit de două ori și are un fiu și o fiică din prima căsătorie.

Emortality
Primele șase volume sunt considerate secvența principală și au fost publicate în afara cronologiei seriei; ordinea preferată de citire prezentată mai jos este stabilită din introducerea autorului în volumul 6, Expediția Omega - Omega Expedition.. Această serie este, de asemenea, legată, deși nu întotdeauna în totalitate, de cele 8 colecții și 3 romane cu subtitlul "Tales of the Revolution Biotech", a se vedea mai jos.

Termenul "emortalitate", destinat să indice apropierea nemuririi, spre deosebire de nemurirea absolută, este recunoscut de către Stableford (în volumul 3, Dark Ararat) că a fost inventat de Alvin Silverstein în cartea sa din 1979, Cucerirea morții - Conquest of Death.

 Author's Note [to Les Fleurs du Mal] (in) *
 "Le Fleurs du Mal: A Tale of the Biotech Revolution" (na), Asimov's October 1994; text corrected here, per the author's introduction: "...I eventually decided to finish the novel version of Les Fleurs du Mal anyway, and completed it in 1992. I wrote the story to what seemed its natural length (68,000 words) but could not sell it...I decided to cut the text drastically and attempt to sell an abridged version of the story to one or other of the sf magazines as a novella. The present text is the 29,000-word result of that cut, although Gardner Dozois—who bought it for publication in the October 1994 issue of Asimov's Science Fiction—insisted on cutting out the gratuitous car chase, thus reducing the published version to 27,000 words."; later expanded into the novel Architects of Emortality, see above

A sub-orbital spaceflight is a spaceflight in which the spacecraft reaches outer space, but its trajectory intersects the surface of the gravitating body from which it was launched. Hence, it will not complete one orbital revolution, will not become an artificial satellite nor will it reach escape velocity.

For example, the path of an object launched from Earth that reaches the Kármán line (about  –  above sea level), and then falls back to Earth, is considered a sub-orbital spaceflight. Some sub-orbital flights have been undertaken to test spacecraft and launch vehicles later intended for orbital spaceflight. Other vehicles are specifically designed only for sub-orbital flight; examples include crewed vehicles, such as the X-15 and SpaceShipTwo, and uncrewed ones, such as ICBMs and sounding rockets.

Flights which attain sufficient velocity to go into low Earth orbit, and then de-orbit before completing their first full orbit, are not considered sub-orbital. Examples of this include the Starship Integrated Flight Test as it had been planned, and flights of the Fractional Orbital Bombardment System.

A flight that does not reach space is still sometimes called sub-orbital, but cannot officially be classified as a 'sub-orbital spaceflight'. Usually a rocket is used, but some experimental sub-orbital spaceflights have also been achieved via the use of space guns.

Altitude requirement

By definition, a sub-orbital spaceflight reaches an altitude higher than  above sea level. This altitude, known as the Kármán line, was chosen by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale because it is roughly the point where a vehicle flying fast enough to support itself with aerodynamic lift from the Earth's atmosphere would be flying faster than orbital speed. The US military and NASA award astronaut wings to those flying above , although the U.S. State Department does not show a distinct boundary between atmospheric flight and spaceflight.

Orbit
During freefall the trajectory is part of an elliptic orbit as given by the orbit equation. The perigee distance is less than the radius of the Earth R including atmosphere, hence the ellipse intersects the Earth, and hence the spacecraft will fail to complete an orbit. The major axis is vertical, the semi-major axis a is more than R/2. The specific orbital energy  is given by:

where  is the standard gravitational parameter.

Almost always a < R, corresponding to a lower  than the minimum for a full orbit, which is

Thus the net extra specific energy needed compared to just raising the spacecraft into space is between 0 and .

Speed, range, and altitude
To minimize the required delta-v (an astrodynamical measure which strongly determines the required fuel), the high-altitude part of the flight is made with the rockets off (this is technically called free-fall even for the upward part of the trajectory). (Compare with Oberth effect.) The maximum speed in a flight is attained at the lowest altitude of this free-fall trajectory, both at the start and at the end of it.

If one's goal is simply to "reach space", for example in competing for the Ansari X Prize, horizontal motion is not needed. In this case the lowest required delta-v, to reach 100 km altitude, is about 1.4 km/s. Moving slower, with less free-fall, would require more delta-v.

Compare this with orbital spaceflights: a low Earth orbit (LEO), with an altitude of about 300 km, needs a speed around 7.7 km/s, requiring a delta-v of about 9.2 km/s. (If there were no atmospheric drag the theoretical minimum delta-v would be 8.1 km/s to put a craft into a 300-kilometer high orbit starting from a stationary point like the South Pole. The theoretical minimum can be up to 0.46 km/s less if launching eastward from near the equator.)

For sub-orbital spaceflights covering a horizontal distance the maximum speed and required delta-v are in between those of a vertical flight and a LEO. The maximum speed at the lower ends of the trajectory are now composed of a horizontal and a vertical component. The higher the horizontal distance covered, the greater the horizontal speed will be. (The vertical velocity will increase with distance for short distances but will decrease with distance at longer distances.) For the V-2 rocket, just reaching space but with a range of about 330 km, the maximum speed was 1.6 km/s. Scaled Composites SpaceShipTwo which is under development will have a similar free-fall orbit but the announced maximum speed is 1.1 km/s (perhaps because of engine shut-off at a higher altitude).

For larger ranges, due to the elliptic orbit the maximum altitude can be much more than for a LEO. On a 10,000-kilometer intercontinental flight, such as that of an intercontinental ballistic missile or possible future commercial spaceflight, the maximum speed is about 7 km/s, and the maximum altitude may be more than 1300 km.
Any spaceflight that returns to the surface, including sub-orbital ones, will undergo atmospheric reentry. The speed at the start of the reentry is basically the maximum speed of the flight. The aerodynamic heating caused will vary accordingly: it is much less for a flight with a maximum speed of only 1 km/s than for one with a maximum speed of 7 or 8 km/s.

The minimum delta-v and the corresponding maximum altitude for a given range can be calculated, d, assuming a spherical Earth of circumference  and neglecting the Earth's rotation and atmosphere. Let θ be half the angle that the projectile is to go around the Earth, so in degrees it is 45°×d/. The minimum-delta-v trajectory corresponds to an ellipse with one focus at the centre of the Earth and the other at the point halfway between the launch point and the destination point (somewhere inside the Earth). (This is the orbit that minimizes the semi-major axis, which is equal to the sum of the distances from a point on the orbit to the two foci. Minimizing the semi-major axis minimizes the specific orbital energy and thus the delta-v, which is the speed of launch.) Geometrical arguments lead then to the following (with R being the radius of the Earth, about 6370 km):

The altitude of apogee is maximized (at about 1320 km) for a trajectory going one quarter of the way around the Earth (). Longer ranges will have lower apogees in the minimal-delta-v solution.

(where g is the acceleration of gravity at the Earth's surface). The Δv increases with range, leveling off at 7.9 km/s as the range approaches  (halfway around the world). The minimum-delta-v trajectory for going halfway around the world corresponds to a circular orbit just above the surface (of course in reality it would have to be above the atmosphere). See lower for the time of flight.

An intercontinental ballistic missile is defined as a missile that can hit a target at least 5500 km away, and according to the above formula this requires an initial speed of 6.1 km/s. Increasing the speed to 7.9 km/s to attain any point on Earth requires a considerably larger missile because the amount of fuel needed goes up exponentially with delta-v (see Rocket equation).

The initial direction of a minimum-delta-v trajectory points halfway between straight up and straight toward the destination point (which is below the horizon). Again, this is the case if the Earth's rotation is ignored. It is not exactly true for a rotating planet unless the launch takes place at a pole.

Flight duration
In a vertical flight of not too high altitudes, the time of the free-fall is both for the upward and for the downward part the maximum speed divided by the acceleration of gravity, so with a maximum speed of 1 km/s together 3 minutes and 20 seconds. The duration of the flight phases before and after the free-fall can vary.

For an intercontinental flight the boost phase takes 3 to 5 minutes, the free-fall (midcourse phase) about 25 minutes. For an ICBM the atmospheric reentry phase takes about 2 minutes; this will be longer for any soft landing, such as for a possible future commercial flight.

Sub-orbital flights can last from just seconds to days. Pioneer 1 was NASA's first space probe, intended to reach the Moon. A partial failure caused it to instead follow a sub-orbital trajectory, reentering the Earth's atmosphere 43 hours after launch.

To calculate the time of flight for a minimum-delta-v trajectory, according to Kepler's third law, the period for the entire orbit (if it did not go through the Earth) would be:

Using Kepler's second law, we multiply this by the portion of the area of the ellipse swept by the line from the centre of the Earth to the projectile:

This gives about 32 minutes for going a quarter of the way around the Earth, and 42 minutes for going halfway around. For short distances, this expression is asymptotic to .

From the form involving arccosine, the derivative of the time of flight with respect to d (or θ) goes to zero as d approaches  (halfway around the world). The derivative of Δv also goes to zero here. So if d = , the length of the minimum-delta-v trajectory will be about , but it will take only a few seconds less time than the trajectory for d =  (for which the trajectory is  long).

Flight profiles

While there are a great many possible sub-orbital flight profiles, it is expected that some will be more common than others.

Ballistic missiles
The first sub-orbital vehicles which reached space were ballistic missiles. The very first ballistic missile to reach space was the German V-2, the work of the scientists at Peenemünde, on October 3, 1942, which reached an altitude of . Then in the late 1940s the US and USSR concurrently developed missiles all of which were based on the V-2 Rocket, and then much longer range Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs). There are now many countries who possess ICBMs and even more with shorter range Intermediate Range Ballistic Missiles (IRBMs).

Tourist flights
Sub-orbital tourist flights will initially focus on attaining the altitude required to qualify as reaching space. The flight path will be either vertical or very steep, with the spacecraft landing back at its take-off site.

The spacecraft will shut off its engines well before reaching maximum altitude, and then coast up to its highest point. During a few minutes, from the point when the engines are shut off to the point where the atmosphere begins to slow down the downward acceleration, the passengers will experience weightlessness.

Megaroc had been planned for sub-orbital spaceflight by the British Interplanetary Society in the 1940s.

In the autumn of 1945, the group M. Tikhonravov K. and N. G. Chernysheva at NII-4 rocket artillery Academy of Sciences technology on its own initiative the first stratospheric rocket project was developed by VR-190 for vertical flight two pilots to an altitude of 200 km based on captured German ballistic rocket V-2.

In 2004, a number of companies worked on vehicles in this class as entrants to the Ansari X Prize competition. The Scaled Composites SpaceShipOne was officially declared by Rick Searfoss to have won the competition on October 4, 2004, after completing two flights within a two-week period.

In 2005, Sir Richard Branson of the Virgin Group announced the creation of Virgin Galactic and his plans for a 9-seat capacity SpaceShipTwo named VSS Enterprise. It has since been completed with eight seats (one pilot, one co-pilot and six passengers) and has taken part in captive-carry tests and with the first mother-ship WhiteKnightTwo, or VMS Eve. It has also completed solitary glides, with the movable tail sections in both fixed and "feathered" configurations.  The hybrid rocket motor has been fired multiple times in ground-based test stands, and was fired in a powered flight for the second time on 5 September 2013. Four additional SpaceShipTwos have been ordered and will operate from the new Spaceport America. Commercial flights carrying passengers were expected in 2014, but became cancelled due to the disaster during SS2 PF04 flight. Branson stated, "[w]e are going to learn from what went wrong, discover how we can improve safety and performance and then move forwards together."

Scientific experiments
A major use of sub-orbital vehicles today is as scientific sounding rockets. Scientific sub-orbital flights began in the 1920s when Robert H. Goddard launched the first liquid fueled rockets, however they did not reach space altitude. In the late 1940s, captured German V-2 ballistic missiles were converted into V-2 sounding rockets which helped lay the foundation for modern sounding rockets. Today there are dozens of different sounding rockets on the market, from a variety of suppliers in various countries. Typically, researchers wish to conduct experiments in microgravity or above the atmosphere.

Sub-orbital transportation
Research, such as that done for the X-20 Dyna-Soar project suggests that a semi-ballistic sub-orbital flight could travel from Europe to North America in less than an hour.

However, the size of rocket, relative to the payload, necessary to achieve this, is similar to an ICBM. ICBMs have delta-v's somewhat less than orbital; and therefore would be somewhat cheaper than the costs for reaching orbit, but the difference is not large.

Due to the high cost of spaceflight, suborbital flights are likely to be initially limited to high value, very high urgency cargo deliveries such as courier flights, military fast-response operations or space tourism.

The SpaceLiner is a hypersonic suborbital spaceplane concept that could transport 50 passengers from Australia to Europe in 90 minutes or 100 passengers from Europe to California in 60 minutes. The main challenge lies in increasing the reliability of the different components, particularly the engines, in order to make their use for passenger transportation on a daily basis possible.

SpaceX is potentially considering using their Starship as a sub-orbital point-to-point transportation system.

Notable uncrewed sub-orbital spaceflights

Future of crewed sub-orbital spaceflight
Private companies such as Virgin Galactic, Armadillo Aerospace (reinvented as Exos Aerospace), Airbus, Blue Origin and Masten Space Systems are taking an interest in sub-orbital spaceflight, due in part to ventures like the Ansari X Prize. NASA and others are experimenting with scramjet-based hypersonic aircraft which may well be used with flight profiles that qualify as sub-orbital spaceflight. Non-profit entities like ARCASPACE and Copenhagen Suborbitals also attempt rocket-based launches.

عملية السلخ
عملية السلخ تختلف حسب النوع والمنطقة، ويمكن أن يسيطر عليها القانون المدني فضلا عن القوانين الدينية مثل موافق للشريعة اليهودية وحلال. الإجراء النموذجي هو التالي :
1.	تنقل الماشية بالشاحنة أو السكة الحديد من المزرعة أو المعلفة.
2.	ترعى الماشية في عقد الأقلام.
3.	تفقد الماشية الوعي من خلال تطبيق الصدمات الكهربائية من 300 فولت و 2 امبير إلى الجزء الخلفي من الرأس، وعلى نحو فعال صاعقة الحيوان (هذه الخطوة محظورة بموجب التطبيق الصارم لقوانين الحلال وكشروت)
4.	تعلق الحيوانات رأسا على عقب من جانب واحد من سيقانها الخلفية على خط المعالجة.
5.	يقطع الشريان السباتي وحبل الوريد بسكين.، نزيف الدم يسبب الوفاة من خلال فقدان الدم.
6.	تتم إزالة الرأس، وكذلك الأقدام الأمامية والخلفية. قبل إزالة الجلد، يقص حول الجهاز الهضمي لمنع التلوث البرازي في وقت لاحق في هذه العملية.
7.	يزال الجلد باداة خاصة إلى أسفل. ويمكن أيضا أن يزال الجلد وذلك بوضع الجثة على مهد والسلخ بسكين.
8.	تتم إزالة الأجهزة الداخلية وتفتيشها من الطفيليات الداخلية وعلامات المرض عليها. كذلك يتم فصل القلب والرئتين وتفتيشها.ثم يتم فصل الكبد للتفتيش ويتم ازالة اللسان من الرأس. ثم يقوم رئيس التفتيش بالكشف على الغدد الليمفاوية لعلامات أمراض جهازية.
9.	تخضع الجثة للتفتيش من قبل مفتشي الحكومة طلبا للسلامة. (وهذا هو التفتيش التي تقوم بها دائرة التفتيش على سلامة الأغذية في الولايات المتحدة والوكالة الكندية في كندا)
10.	تعرض الجثة للمعالجة للحد من مستويات البكتيريا بالبخار أوالمياه الساخنة، أوالأحماض العضوية.
11.	تبرد الجثة لمنع نمو الكائنات الحية الدقيقة وللحد من التدهور في حين ينتظر توزيع اللحوم.
12.	يتم تقسيم الجثة المبردة إلى قطع عادية وممتازة ما لم يطلب الزبون جانبين سليمين من اللحوم.
13.	يتم إرسال نفايات المواد مثل العظام والشحم إلى منشأة للتحويل.
14.	يتم إرسال المياه العادمة، التي تتألف من الدم والبراز، الناتجة عن طريق عملية الذبح إلى محطة معالجة المياه العادمة.
15.	يتم نقل اللحم إلى مراكز التوزيع ثم يتم توزيعها على أسواق التجزئة.

Robert Waltrip Short (September 15, 1924 – March 21, 2005) was an American cabaret singer and pianist, who interpreted songs by popular composers from the first half of the 20th century such as Rodgers and Hart, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Harold Arlen, Richard A. Whiting, Vernon Duke, Noël Coward and George and Ira Gershwin.

Short also championed African-American composers of the same period such as Eubie Blake, James P. Johnson, Andy Razaf, Fats Waller, Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, presenting their work not in a polemical way, but as simply the obvious equal of that of their white contemporaries.

Short's dedication to his great love – what he called the "Great American Song" – left him equally adept at performing the witty lyrics of Bessie Smith's "Gimme a Pigfoot (And a Bottle of Beer)" or Gershwin and Duke's "I Can't Get Started". Short stated his favorite songwriters were Ellington, Arlen and Kern, and he was instrumental in spearheading the construction of the Ellington Memorial in New York City. He was a friend of Tom Jobim and was present during the composer's final days in New York City.

Early life
Short was born in Danville, Illinois, where two of his school classmates were Dick Van Dyke and Donald O'Connor. He began performing piano in dance halls and saloons, and as a busker, after leaving home at age 11 for Chicago with his mother's permission.

Career
Short began his adult musical career in clubs in the 1940s. In 1968 he was offered a two-week stint at the Café Carlyle in New York City, to fill in for George Feyer. Short (accompanied by Beverly Peer on bass and Dick Sheridan on drums) became an institution at the Carlyle, as Feyer had been before him, and remained there as a featured performer for more than 35 years. He often performed impromptu all-night sets at his various favorite cafes and restaurants. He was a regular patron at Ted Hook's Backstage, at Eighth Avenue and 45th Street.

In 1971 Short published Black and White Baby, a brilliant description of his childhood upbringing in the dance halls and saloons of Chicago and New York, and his family's fight for survival after the death of his father. He followed with Bobby Short: The Life and Times of a Saloon Singer in 1995, chronicling his career into the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s.

Short continued his career in the 1970s and 1980s singing for films and television. In 1972, he performed the theme song to James Ivory's film Savages. In 1976, Short sang and appeared in a commercial for Revlon's perfume "Charlie". In 1979 he performed a 25-song set that was released on DVD in 2004 as Bobby Short at the Cafe Carlyle. In 1981, he made a cameo appearance on The Love Boat in a two-part episode. In 1985, he sang part of the opening theme for the NBC television show Misfits of Science. Short continued working in films when, in 1986, he appeared in the Woody Allen film Hannah and Her Sisters. Allen used Short's recording of "I Happen to Like New York" for the opening title of Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993).

In 1991, Short made a guest appearance as blues musician Ches Collins on the TV series In the Heat of the Night in the episode "Sweet, Sweet Blues". He also performed the episode's theme song. He reprised the role in the 1994 episode "Ches and the Grand Lady". In 1993, he made an appearance in the Michael J. Fox comedy film For Love or Money, performing Marc Shaiman's song "In Your Eyes". Short's final film role was in Man of the Century (1999).

Later years

In 2000, the Library of Congress designated Short a Living Legend, a recognition established as part of its bicentennial celebration. The next year, his voice was featured in the 200th episode of the sitcom Frasier. In 2004, Short announced plans to end his regular appearances at the Café Carlyle by the end of the year. He continued to tour and travel until the end of his life.

Awards
Bobby Short was inducted as a Laureate of The Lincoln Academy of Illinois and in 1983 was awarded the Order of Lincoln by the governor of Illinois (the state's highest honor) in the area of performing arts.

Personal life
Short adopted Ronald Bell, of San Francisco, who was the son of Short's older brother William.

Although Short never publicly declared that he was gay, it was well known among his friends, fellow musicians, and some of his fans. When asked by a friend why he hadn't taken part in any of the gay pride marches of the 1970s and 1980s, Short's response was, "I have a living to make! I can't afford to march in the Gay Pride Parade."

Death
On March 21, 2005, Short died of leukemia at New York Presbyterian Hospital. He is buried in Atherton Cemetery in Danville, Illinois, the city of his birth.

Lucien Adolphe Labaudt (Paris,  - Assam, ) est un artiste américain d'origine française. Ayant vécu en Californie, il fut
costumier, décorateur, enseignant, graveur, peintre, et muraliste.

Biographie
Né à Paris en 1880 dans un milieu lié à la mode, Lucien Adolphe Labaudt devient couturier pour femmes avant de quitter la France en 1906 pour les États-Unis. Il arrive à Nashville, puis, en 1910, s'installe à San Francisco, au 526 Powell Street, alors en pleine reconstruction après le tremblement de terre, et ouvre un atelier de création de costumes. En 1919, il commence d'enseigner l'art du costume au San Francisco Art Institute (alors appelé California School of Fine Arts), dont il prendra plus tard la direction.

En tant que peintre, influencé par Paul Cézanne et Georges Seurat, il est proche de l'école de Paris, exposant à partir des années 1920 dans la capitale française (Salon d'automne en 1925, Galerie Pleyel en 1928) mais aussi à New York, Pittsburgh (, 1931) et San Francisco (East West Gallery, 1928). Dans le cadre du Federal Art Project, il exécute des peintures murales, dont les fresques du  (San Francisco, 1936), Life on the Old Spanish and American Ranchos (1938) et Aerodynamism (1941) sur Spring Street à Los Angeles, ainsi que Powell Street, une des fresques du Coit Memorial Tower (San Francisco, 1933).

Tout en exposant ses peintures, Labaudt est costumier et décorateur pour le théâtre. Il collabore au théâtre de la Gaité française fondé par Jeanne et André Ferrier à San Francisco en 1921 au 1470 Washington Street.

Labaudt fréquente de nombreux artistes de la scène californienne de cette époque : Lorser Feitelson, Helen Lundeberg, , Diego Rivera, et sert de lien entre Paris et la Californie, via entre autres André Lhote. En 1930, Henri Matisse visite San Francisco et les deux artistes resteront proches.

Son épouse née en France, Marcelle Labaudt (1892-1987), joua un rôle très important dans sa vie. Proches des artistes, elle travaille à ses côtés et tisse de nombreux liens entre les deux continents.

En 1942, Lucien Labaudt devient correspondant de guerre pour le magazine Life. Se rendant en Inde avec son épouse pour réaliser un reportage sur la vie artistique en Extrême-Orient, il meurt lors d'un accident aérien au dessus de l'Assam, en compagnie de neuf autres artistes, alors qu'ils étaient en partance pour la Chine.

Marcelle Labaudt, de retour à San Francisco, y ouvre en 1946 la Lucien Labaudt Art Gallery, au 1407 Gough Street, qui jouera un rôle premier dans la renaissance de cette ville, y accueillant de jeunes artistes (par exemple l'artiste chinois ) et des poètes, comme Madeline Gleason, qui organisa en avril 1947 le First Festival of Modern Poetry.

Le San Francisco Museum of Modern Art conserve des œuvres de Lucien Labaudt, ainsi que le Oakland Museum of California.

Tous deux inhumés au National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (Honolulu), Marcelle et Lucien ont eu une fille, Yliane Labaudt-Remy, née en 1911 à San Francisco, qui est peintre.

Die Pfarrkirche St. Stefan an der Gail steht im gleichnamigen Ort auf einer kleinen Anhöhe nördlich der Gail. Der Überlieferung nach soll schon um 800 ein Bischof Theoderich hier eine Eigenkirche erbaut haben. Die erste urkundliche Erwähnung als Pfarre fand St. Stefan 1275.

Bauwerk
Der Sakralbau ist eine mittelgroße spätgotische Staffelhallenkirche. Der Turm an der Chornordseite mit Mauerschitzen und spitzbogigen Schallfenstern wird von einem Spitzgiebelhelm bekrönt. Südlich des Chores schließt ein zweigeschoßiger Sakristeianbau mit spätgotischen quadratischen Fenstern an. An der Nord- und der Südseite des Langhauses befindet sich jeweils ein barocker Kapellenanbau. Der Chor wird durch dreikantige Strebepfeiler, die Südseite des Langhauses durch einen einfach abgetreppten Strebepfeiler gestützt. Der am Giebelfeld der Westwand eingemauerte lebensgroße Steinkopf ist entweder keltischen oder mittelalterlichen Ursprungs. An der Langhausnordwand hängt ein um 1600 entstandenes Kruzifix. An der Nord- und der Westseite befinden sich spitzbogig profilierte Portale. Das Westportal wird von einer erneuerten Pfeilervorhalle geschützt und besitzt eine mit reichem Schnitzwerk versehene Türe.

Über dem dreischiffigen, vierjochigen Langhaus erhebt sich ein Netzrippengewölbe mit runden und quadratischen Schlusssteinen über oktogonale Stützen. Die große Empore mit zurückschwingender Mitte und vorschwingenden Seitenteilen nimmt zwei Joche ein und ist im Westjoch zweigeschoßig. Die Gemälde an der Orgelbrüstung aus der Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts zeigen die Martyrien der Heiligen Stephanus, Laurentius und Barbara sowie die Darstellung der beiden Johannes.
In der Nordwand des östlichen Jochs führt ein spitzbogig gekehlter Zugang in eine Seitenkapelle, deren frühbarockes Gewölbe Stichkappen und ein Stuckkreisfeld aufweisen. An der gegenüber liegenden Seite bildet eine rundbogige Öffnung den Zugang zur querrechteckigen Südkapelle mit abgeschrägten Ecken. In dieser flachgewölbten Kapelle sind die Wände mit Stuckrahmenfelder gegliedert. Ein spitzbogiger gekehlter Triumphbogen verbindet das Langhaus und den dreijochigen Chor mit Dreiachtelschluss. Der Chor ist niedriger als das Langhaus und hat etwa die Breite des Mittelschiffs. Im Chor ruht ein Netzrippengewölbe mit runden bemalten Wappenschlusssteinen auf halbrunden Vorlagen. An der Chornordseite befindet sich das spitzbogig abgefaste Portal zum Turm, an der Chorsüdseite führt ein ebensolches Portal mit spätgotischer eisenbeschlagener Tür in die Sakristei. Darüber befindet sich das segmentbogenförmige Fenster des Oratoriums. Von den fünf Lanzettfenster im Chor hat sich im  zweiteiligen mittleren das ursprüngliche Maßwerk erhalten. Die Fenster in den beiden westliche Langhausjochen sind in zwei Geschoßen angeordnet: unten barock rundbogig und oben spitzbogig. Die Nordkapelle besitzt ein Spitzbogenfenster, die Südkapelle barocke Rundbogenfenster. Die Verglasungen der Fenster wurden um 1900 bzw. 1936 erneuert.

Die Gewölbefelder des Chores weisen frühbarocke Rankendekoration auf und zeigen in eingezogenen Vierpassmedaillons die Halbfiguren von Aposteln und anderen Heiligen vom Ende des 15. Jahrhunderts. Am Triumphbogen ist chorseitig ein barockes Jüngstes Gericht zu sehen.

Einrichtung
An dem um 1730 gefertigten Hochaltar ist in der Mitte ein Relief mit der Steinigung des heiligen Stephanus und darüber ein Relief mit dem Martyrium des heiligen Laurentius eingearbeitet. Die beiden Reliefs stammen ursprünglich von einem spätgotischen Flügelaltar vom Anfang des 16. Jahrhunderts. Die barocke Schnitzfigur im Aufsatz stellt Gottvater dar. Über den Opfergangsportalen stehen die Statuen der Heiligen Johann Nepomuk und Ignatius von Loyola. Die Opfergangstüren sind mit der Muttergottes und den heiligen Josef bemalt. Auf der Altarmensa stehen vier Rokokoleuchter.

Die Bilder der beiden um 1720 entstandenen Wandaltäre im Chor zeigen links Franz von Assisi und rechts die Pestheiligen Sebastian und Rochus.

Die beiden Seitenaltäre im Langhaus stammen um 1760. Der linke trägt eine spätgotische Marienschnitzfigur, flankiert von den Statuen der Heiligen Joachim und Anna.

Der rechte Seitenaltar ist ein viersäuliger Ädikula-Altar. Im Schrein stehen   die Skulpturen der beiden Johannes. Assistenzfiguren sind der hl. Benedikt mit Buch und Krummstab sowie Antonius von Padua. Die Figur im Aufsatz gibt den heiligen Florian wieder, flankiert von den heiligen Agnes und Notburga.

Das Mittelbild des Altars in der Nordkapelle zeigt das Martyrium der heiligen Barbara, das Aufsatzbild die heilige Maria Magdalena.
Der um 1780/1790 errichtete Kreuzaltar in der Südkapelle mit schwerer Säulenarchitektur in grauweißer Marmorierung wird von einem Baldachin bekrönt.

Die Kanzel stammt aus dem ersten Viertel des 18. Jahrhunderts. Die Malereien am Kanzelkorb zeigen die Kirchenväter Augustinus, Gregor und Hieronymus. Die Rückwand bildet ein Gemälde des Letzten Abendmahles. Der Schalldeckel mit der Darstellung eines Posaune blasenden Engels in einer Kartusche wird von einer Monstranz bekrönt.

Zur weiteren Einrichtung gehören Kreuzweg-Gemälde.

In der Südkapelle ist der Wappengrabstein des Cristoff von Aichelburg von 1540 eingemauert.
