Bye-bye, Moon
Honored samurai, ruthless ronin, wayward vagabonds, shadowy ninja and helpless villagers... welcome.
Blown inexplicably out of orbit on this date by a massive explosion of nuclear waste on its “dark” side, the moon was hurtled across the vast reaches of space never to be seen again. While the plight of those manning the international station, Moonbase Alpha, was explored, the stories of Earth, which was wracked by natural disasters unlike any that modern man had ever experienced, were never touched upon. Until now...
“Fathom” (a collaborative short story by yours truly and legendary author and publisher Bruce Bethke) is just one of several accounts of news, fiction and personal tales of life after that fateful day! Brought to you via Bethke’s Stupefying Stories website in a week-long celebration of the hit 70s tv series Space: 1999. COMPLETELY FREE!
Until then!
Made in DNA
Good one!
