Episode #295: 10 More Great Sci-Fi Stories: First Contact

from The Good Old Days of Radio Show · host John Tefteller

This week's great science fiction story is by Murray Leinster. He is most famous for his story on artificial intelligence "A Logic Named Joe," where he uncannily predicted the Internet. This story is a little more thinky, as it wrestles with heady problems of a "first contact" with an alien intelligence. Earth explorers encounter an alien ship in the midst of space, but both ships find they can not risk trusting the other, or returning home, doomed to an eternal stalemate.
