"I've always been lucky, I guess. Luck got me a place in the Whale . Sure I'm a good astronomer but so are lots of other guys. If I were ten years older, it would have been an honor, being picked for the first long jump in the first starship ever. At my worked. Well, she did. Went like a bomb. We got lined up between Earth and Mars, you'll remember, and James pushed the button marked 'Jump'. Took his finger off the button and there we were: Alpha Centauri . Two months later your time, fouled things up. "That was some survey assignment. We astronomers really lived. Wait till you see—but of course you "I'm shocked all right. I never said who I was. Matt Hennessy, from Farside Observatory, back of the Moon, just back from a proving flight cum astronomical survey in the starship Whale . Whoever you are who finds this tape, you're made. Take it to and don't take any wooden nickels. "Where had I got to? I'd told you how we happened to find Chang, hadn't I? That's what the natives called it. Walking, talking natives on a blue sky planet with 1.1 g gravity and a twenty per cent oxygen atmosphere at fifteen p.s.i. The odds against finding Chang on a six-sun survey on the first star jump ever must be up in the googols. We certainly were lucky. "The Chang natives aren't very technical—haven't got space travel for instance. They're good astronomers, though. We were able to show them our sun, in their telescopes. In their way, they're a highly civilized people. Look more like cats than over. "One, they learned our language in four weeks. When I say they, I mean a ten-man team of them.

As for chess, Svendlov chess. Of course it's a screwy situation, playing chess with something that grows its own fur coat, has yellow eyes an inch and a half long "And don't think I fell victim to their feline charm. The children were pets, but you didn't feel like patting the adults on their big grinning heads. Personally I didn't like the one I knew best. He was called—well, we called him Charley, and he was the ethnologist, ambassador, contact man, or whatever you like to call him, who came back with us. Why I disliked Charley ... was and beginning to break up, unhurt, was Charley. He was laughing ... "My God, it's dark out here. Wonder how high I am. Must be all of same as escape floating. Let's switch on the radio and tell the world hello. Hello, earth ... hello, again ... and good-by ... is that the suit ran out of journey, wasn't I? The long jump back home, which should have dumped us between the orbits of Earth and Mars. Instead of which, when James took his finger off the button, the mass-detector showed nothing "We were out in that no place for a day. We astronomers had to establish our exact position relative to the solar system. The crew had to find out exactly what went wrong. The physicists had to make mystic passes residual folds in stress-free space. Our task was easy, because we were about half a light-year from the sun. The crew's job was also easy: they found what went wrong in less than translated into the somewhat abstruse for. All we'd done was aim for the wrong place. It hurts me to tell you this and I'm just attached personnel with no space-flight tradition. In practical terms, one highly trained crew member had punched a wrong why we were out there so long. They were cross-checked about five times. I got sick so I climbed into a spacesuit and went outside and took some photographs of the Sun which I hoped time nothing would go wrong, and all looking forward to seeing Earth again after four months subjective time away, except for Charley, who was still chuckling and shaking his head, and Captain James who was passed through a small sieve, and poured back into shape. The entire bow wall-screen was full of Earth. Something was wrong all right, and was the For, as of course you know, the "The Whale also had ion rockets of course, the standard deuterium-fusion ship. "James got us all into the was meant for short heavy hops to planets or asteroids. In addition to the ion drive it had emergency atomic rockets, with them in a few seconds. We curved away up over China and from Whale hit the Pacific. Six hundred tons of mass at well over two thousand miles an hour make an almighty splash. By now you'll have divers down, but I doubt they'll salvage much you can use. "I wonder why James went down have broken his heart to know that his lovely ship was getting the chopper. Or did he suspect another human the spacesuit I was still wearing. I snapped the face plate down because the cabin was filling with fumes. I I don't see how any of us could have survived. I think we're all dead. Then snow began to shift on the on the recorder. The voice began again, considerably wearier. "Hello there. I'm in the bleakest wilderness I've ever seen.

Those jokers are dangerous. I'm not telling how because I've got a scientific reputation for yourselves. Here are the clues: (1) The Chingsi talk and laugh but after all they aren't human. On an alien world a hundred light-years away, why shouldn't alien talents develop? A talent that's so uncertain and rudimentary it, might be highly developed out there. (2) The Whale expedition did fine till it found Chang. Then it hit ping-pong. luck. It's a fancy name for a lot of For him, luck refers to the knows that some people are lucky and others aren't. All we've got are hints and glimmers, the fumbling touch of a rudimentary talent. There's the evil eye legend and the Jonah, bad luck accident prones. What's in a name?
