Worlds Apart

Transcribed earlier or released to our West Coast audience at this more convenient listening time. Central operational headquarters, Commander Dijkstra speaking. This morning at 400 hours, our electronics can have picked up on oscillator frequency and unidentified spacecraft in sector K beyond the gravitational field of the planet Mars.

Our calculations indicate that this craft will arrive in space sector G within the next 24 hours. Emergency directions to all defense units. Coordinate high voltage destroyers to cover area G. All units are an alert for assault action.

To learn what happened when a strange craft from outer space came into sector G, listen in a moment to 2000 plus. Adventures in the world of tomorrow. Dramatic stories of science fiction from the years beyond 2018.

Today, the strange adventure of men who dared the unknown through interplanetary space. Worlds apart. And one thing more, Johnson, your new Allemore space suit has been tested, and it's everything you claimed it to be.

Light, pliable, fireproof, a splendid product. We'll want 50 of them in time for the next space flight three weeks from now. Can you make it? Excellent. Good luck, Johnson. Yes? Your son is here, Mr. Granger.

He wants to see you. Jim here? Jim here? Well, tell him I can't... all right, send him in. Yes, sir. And the same, Sir Robert, you can start punching tape for the mechanical pilot on Flight 17.

Yes, Mr. Granger. Oh, yeah, Jim. Dad, I've come to ask you a favor on you. I'll make a favor. Well, talk fast, son. I'm very busy. What is it you want? I want to be assigned to Flight 17.

What? Flight 17? To Neptune? Oh, are you crazy? No, Dad. I've been thinking about this for a month. Well, you can stop thinking about it right now. There's no opening for you, sir. Hi. I happen to know there is dead.
