Professor klystron with the planet Aglabat
constellation Centaurus sitting on a chair, clutching
in the tentacles of the laser soldering. The entire technical
staff had already left, and a professor was left alone with
him. A few hours work, and the last block of the main computer
will be ready. After this will finish only minor finishing work,
that the powerful battle station began to carry out his deadly
assignment. War with Skoriantsami from a neighboring star
system has continued in 1994 with a variable success, but now a
new invention of Professor Klystron - battle station, equipped
with the latest weapons and controlled only robots, end nasty
Skoriantsam ... Such thoughts stir in my head klystron, when,
suddenly, shaken by a terrible blow to the station. Rack with
tools standing at the door of the main compartment tilted and
fell, permanently disrupting the life of the great professors
...
Over the shipyards, which was located
station, swept five skorianskih fighters, Pal of all guns.
Ensued a desperate struggle.
Attachment that kept the station,
damaged by the explosion, slowly began to sag, as long as there
have not separated from the basic design. A slowly receding
into the bottomless blackness of space ball busy fighting the
pilots did not pay attention ...

Over the long centuries of wandering in the infinite
expanses of space battle station is fully
lost its former appearance: Space
dust and numerous asteroids have
his work, and now the station was similar to
giant boulder, wandering among the stars.
And this "lump" was in sight of Earth ...

In New York there was a warm summer evening.
The Institute for Space Studies course was a normal working

telescope and watched the lunar surface.
Having made the necessary observations, he wrote
Results and turned his attention to other objects. Suddenly his
attention was attracted by a small dot on the screen, which he
knew there should have been. Putting increased to maximum, it
is determined that it is likely, the asteroid giant size.
Michael sat down Calculations and after half an hour, looking at
results, was horrified: the course of a giant asteroid passed
close from Earth. The doctor rushed to the phone ..
After four days the whole earth knew about the impending
danger.
Government's most powerful nations
equipped a large space fleet, who immediately flew out to meet
approaching object. Ten hours distance between the navy and the
asteroid reduced so that it can be
consider the naked eye. All once again proved that there is no
possibility of an asteroid to take another course and the only
thing left to do - it destroy it.
At first wing flew the most powerful battleship armed with
nuclear torpedoes - the product of many years to improve the
molecular-atomic technology.
Torpedo rushed to a block of rock, carrying a huge charge
capacity. Four minutes later the goal was achieved. The
explosion was so strong that almost all photo-sensors ships out
of service.
When they were replaced by new ones, and dust
the explosion dispersed the eyes of people presented itself a
fantastic sight: glistening rounded body and barrels of guns,
in the space flying space station ...
