Castaways of Eros we start?" "Why not now? There's nothing to keep us here." They packed their meager belongings while Dick finished his meal the Two families fought for the title to Eros, and only one could win. One had to outsmart the other—and both had to win over the southward, the ground rising steadily before them. And before evening, sun was high when they left the beach. They followed the shore line had discovered that there was game on Eros. Not quite Earthly, of had an ending even those embittered "There would have to be insects," Pop said. "There could be no fruitful vegetable life without insects. Plants need bees and crawling ants—or their equivalent—to carry the pollen from one flower to another." the Solar Space Patrol man-o'-war. Here, in this field, the GSC's—the General Spacecraft Cradles. From one of which, as soon as Pop got clearance, their ship would take off. Their ship! Bobby felt an eager quickening of his pulse his stomach was aswarm with a host of butterflies. Their ship! The space officer said, "I think that takes care of everything, Dr. Moseley. I presume you understand the land-grant laws and obligations?" his left arm, helped his mother aboard, said, "Shut up, kid, you're word, kid." Of course, he got to sit in the pilot's bucket-chair, which was something. Moira and Eleanor and Mom to lie down in acceleration absorbing the shock. Across the room a faulty hammock-hinge squeaked rustily. Then it was over as quickly as it had begun, and he could breathe queerly because up was down and top was bottom and everything was funny interludes with space-pirates, narrow brushes with meteors, sabotage, treachery—hair-raising, heroic and horrifying. There was nothing like that to disturb the calm and peaceful journey of between hands, about the dad-blame nonsensical way Dick was handling the ship. And somehow three Earth days sped by, and they were nearing their destination. The tiny planetoid, Eros. Pop said, "You deserve a great deal of credit, son, for your fine work in rehabilitating the government land grant to Eros. What a plum! Atmosphere ... water ... Frankly, I don't get it! Eros must have terrific mass to have the "Eros!" he said. they would land on it. It was as simple at that. Only it wasn't. Nor did they have any warning that the problem was more complex until it was too late to change their plans, too late to halt the irrevocable movements of a grounding spaceship. Dick should have Earth-Venus-Mars run. But all those planets were large Eros was just a "And now we've got to land in the dark. On strange terrain. Arragh! I "'What can't be cured,'" said Pop mildly, "'must be endured.' We have the forward search-beams, son. They will help." That was sheer optimism. As they neared the planet its gravitational attraction seized them tighter and tighter until they were completely under its compulsion. Dusk swept down upon them, the sunlight dulled, There was no further need for the artificial gravs. Eros exerted, Through howling Bedlam they tumbled dizzily and for moments that were ages long. While Dick labored frantically at the controls, while Moira watched with bated breath. Mom said nothing, but her hand sought motors caught, something forward exploded dully, distantly. The ship like a sieve. Look, everybody—get into your bulgers. We'll get out through the airlock!" Mom cried, "But—but our supplies, Dick! What are we going to do for food, clothing, furniture—?" "We'll worry about that later. Right now we've got to think of they followed Dick to the airlock. It was weird, and a little bit frightening, but to Bobby it was thrilling, too. This was the sort of thing you read stories about. Escape from a flooding ship.... They had time—or took time—to gather together a few precious belongings. Eleanor packed a carrier with baby food for The Pooch, Mom a bundle of provisions hastily swept from the galley bins Pop remembered the medical kit and the tool-box, Grampaw was laden down with blankets and clothing, Dick burdened himself and Bobby with armloads of such things as he saw and forevisioned need for. , they fled. The airlock was small. There was room for but one at a time. The water was waist—no, breast-deep—by the time all were gone save Bobby and Dick. Bobby, whose imagination had already assigned him the command of the foundering ship, wanted to uphold the ancient traditions by being He stepped forward. And floated upward, feeling an uneasy, quibbly warm, safe rubber rowboat. The stars winked at him, the soft waves In the sudden scarlet of dawn, it was impossible to believe the night had even been frightening. Throughout the night, the Moseley clan huddled together there on the beach, waiting, silent, wondering. But when the sun burst over the horizon like a clamoring, brazen gong, they looked upon this land which was their new home—and found it good. The night did not last long. But Pop had told them it would not. "Eros rotates on its axis," he explained, "in about ten hours, forty planet, I mean? After all, Eros is only one hundred and eighty odd "Eros has many peculiarities. Some of them we have discussed before. It "During its near approach in 1900-01, Eros was seen to vary in After 1931, though, the planetoid fled from Earth. It was not until 1975, the period of its next approach, that the Ronaldson-Chenwith expedition visited it and determined the old presumption to be correct." "We're not the first men to visit Eros, then?" that all asteroids should be settled under land-grant law. "That is why," concluded Pop, "we are here now. As long as I can own. Long years ago I decided that Eros should be my settlement. As you have said, Richard, it necessitated the pulling of many strings. Eros blankets and spare clothing to dry? Grampaw, get a fire going.

Thus Eros greeted its new masters, and the Moseleys faced morning in Four Eros days—the equivalent of forty-two Earth hours or so—had passed since their crash landing. In that short time, much had been done to make their beach camp-site comfortable. All members of the family were waiting now for Dick to return. for a little while, Father. We can't get fresh foods until we're settled open when we hit, the ship is full of water. The flour and sugar and things like that are ruined. I managed to get a few more things out, though. Some tools, guns, wire—stuff like that." "How about the hypatomic?" "Let him eat, Rob," said Mom. "He's hungry." "I can eat and talk at the same time, Mom. I think I can get the hypatomic out. I'd better, anyhow. If we're ever going to raise the ship, we'll need power. And atomic power is the only kind we can get in this wilderness." And he shook his head. "But we can't do it in a day or a week. It will take time." "Time," said Pop easily, "is the one commodity with which we are over-supplied." He thought for a minute. "If that's the way it is, we
