FUTURAMA Outer Space Station to Earth . . . Come in, Earth . . . Station GB calling Worcester, Massachusetts. . . . Earth to GB . . . Come in . . . Station WRED is ready to receive reports from the spacemen. . . . ' Ladies and gentlemen of our listening audience, this is Dominick McGrail, the commentator on Planet to Earth, ' bringing to you, this fifth day of September, 1970, the first true-life report on the happenings in outer space. It was twelve years ago today that volunteer members of the Class of 58 ' from W.S.T.C. decided to establish life on the first stopping station in space. Tonight we shall hear from Mickey ' Moran, the keeper and guardian of the landing platform on the station, the Green Beetle. ' Bob ' O ' Brien, the technician, has just given me the signal. In sixty seconds we shall hear from the spaceship ... 25 seconds ... 10 seconds ... 5 seconds . . . 3 . . . 2 . . . I ... Come in, Beetle. . . . Hello, Mr. McGrail, this is your old classmate speaking. As you have said, we left our native land on a cold morning twelve years ago at 0-600. Ninety seconds later, we reached our destination quite pale and fatigued despite the efforts of our competent stewardesses, Jean Chauvin, Judith Kane, and Alice Guzik. As we climbed out of the ship into the vast wilderness, many of us wondered what the future would bring. Our first project was to further organize our group. Our president was, of course, Paul E. Sullivan, who, we think, should be recorded in history as the first president of outer space. Wanting to be recognized as people rather than as spacemen, we called our- selves the Green Beetles, which title seemed appropriate because, for the first few weeks, everything, including our own skin, appeared green. This condition, we later found out through the efforts of the scientist, Richard Terry, was due to the gravita- tional pull on the nervous system. To remedy this situation, Noreen Arnberg, head of our medical center, invented the quick-working non-analgesic vitamin, ' null-G, 1 guaran- teed to restore man ' s natural pallor. Along with this vitamin, an excellent carbon-dioxide reduction system, a green- house, has been established by our expert botanists, Helen Espanet and Dorothy Sea hill. Some of the other emporiums located along our main thoroughfare are: the Fairbrook Meat Market of ' Nick ' Pacella and Phil ' Anastas; the Specialty Shop of 17
