À propos de l'auteur
Ed Thrush was born on August 16, 1954. He now lives in Woodlawn, Maryland. Growing up with the original “Outer Limits” television series he was highly influenced by science fiction and followed the space program closely as a child. Recently he obtained all 42 episodes of the Outer Limits and watched them all. An early science fiction reader (among other genres) and lover of sci-fi films, Ed has decided to publish one of his own short stories. It is hoped that this will be the start of more to come.

Jim! Tom! Take a look at this.
Rhea had seen a huge magnetic fluctuation while looking at live scans of the sky with the new energy collecting telescope located at the Martin R. Scott Science Institute in Frederick, Maryland. The position shifts were fast.
Jim was mesmerized looking at the numerical readouts on the display, Its huge, the field is enormous and whatever is generating it must be fairly sizable.
Tom was dumbstruck, Have you two lost sight of the fact that we have a rather large object traveling at...let me see that (clicking the mouse to update the selected region in space) ...Oh Boy! That comes to about 480,000 miles per hour heading straight for us! That is about three times the fastest meteorite rate recorded, we have an anomaly, not rare for speed but for size, speed and uh… target
Rhea was studying another screen. But it is slowing down,
