"Time Fuze" by Randall Garrett

A ship with an experimental faster-than-light drive, the first ever to voyage outside of our solar system, arrives some distance from their destination of Alpha Centauri A. Upon arriving, the crew witnesses an unexpected event which has an astronomically low probability of occurrence.   For this episode, the short story is titled "Time Fuze" by Randall Garrett, which was first published in the March 1954 publication of If Worlds of Science Fiction.Thank you to Beyond the Center's Stellar Supporters:Jim PollockEmail: [email protected] us Fan MailSupport the showBeyond the Center Facebook pageBeyond the Center receives absolutely no revenue from advertisements you may hear on various podcast platforms.
