About this listen

An asteroid parks on Earth's orbit, and Alex Jones is sent to collect samples and figure it out. But the passenger is chatty, and his revelations are mind-blowing.

A twenty minute short of sheer de!ight. Terror strikes the earth when an asteroid is spotted heading directly on a collision course, but instead of crashing, it goes into orbit. An astronaut is sent out to inspect it.
Perfectly read by Ralph Scott, with both clarity and good intonation, this amusing story is made even more unreal by the doubling of end credits which increases a sense of surrealism. My thanks to Mythographers who, at my request, freely gifted me a complimentary copy of Astropithicus. Great fun.
