This is a bundle of material for the Mongoose Games continuation of the venerable Journal of the Traveller's Aid Society; their first 12 collections of articles and adventures for Mongoose Traveller.

So far I've only checked out one volume, which ran to 130 pages and had some fun stuff on organized crime, some interesting ships, and so forth. Presentation is good and art is adequate although you have to wonder why the cover of volume 10 (below), showing characters in combat, has one character (possibly male, you can't really tell) wearing full body armour while a woman who appears to be part of the same team is wearing some belts of equipment but otherwise has her upper torso and head unarmoured and exposed. Not quite a brass bikini but close...
I think it's a reasonable deal at about $25 if you want lots of relatively unrelated material for the system - but something more structured may be a better idea for someone who isn't spending a LOT of time playing the game.
