Christ In The Storm On The Sea Of Galilee
It was a vast, shining globe and it cast a light of lambent topaz into space—but it wasnot a sun. Thus, the planet had fooled men for a long time. Not until entering closeorbit around it did its discoverers realize that this was a world in a binary system andnot a third sun itself. At first it seemed certain nothing could exist on such a planet, least of all humans.Yet both massive G1 and G2 stars orbited a common center with peculiar to permitthe development of a rather stable, if exquisitely hot, climate. Mostly this was a drydesert of a world, whose unusual star-like yellow glow was the result of doublesunlight striking sodium-rich sands and flats. That same sunlight suddenly shone onthe thin skin of a metallic shape falling crazily toward the atmosphere. The erratic course the galactic cruiser was traveling was intentional, not theproduct of injury but of a desperate desire to avoid it. Long streaks of intense energyslid close past its hull, a multihued storm of destruction like a school of rainbowremoras fighting to attach themselves to a larger, unwilling host. One of those probing, questing beams succeeded in touching the fleeing ship,striking its principal solar fin. Gemlike fragments of mental and plastic erupted intospace as the end of the fin disintegrated. The vessel seemed to shudder.
