Because you care about tractor beams
According to this ITALICS: review>essay, E.E. Smith, author of the Lensmen series (Book 2 review coming in a couple of weeks) invented the terms "hyperspace," "forcefield," "tractor beam," and "mothership." The more I learn about this guy the more intrigued I am. That's one hell of a track record for inventing technobabble, although I must say that having read Triplanetary I'm quite glad that Smith's habit of describing space battles mainly in terms of a variety of different colored rays hasn't stuck around.
