by Mark Clifton ‧ RELEASE DATE: Jan. 26, 1961
Unwillingly impersonating a staff psychologist because of governmental misunderstanding, Ralph Kennedy goes far in Extraterrestrial Life Research for the Space Navy in Washington and further in promoting excessive bureaucratic procedures. But when the Black Fleet is defeated by the luminous globes, when the Five from the globes are national heroes, it is Kennedy's scepticism that finds the answers to the hoax and the illusion. A nice touch of satire marks this.
