I
drew
on
my
cigarette
,
looking
out
at
the
sea
and
at
the
infinite
blue
sky
above
it
.
"
Up
there
,
"
I
Went
on
,
"
up
there
,
there
were
—
and
maybe
there
still
are
—
unknown
numbers
of
satellite
weapons
circling
round
and
round
the
Earth
.
Just
a
lot
of
dormant
menaces
,
touring
around
,
waiting
for
someone
,
or
something
,
to
set
them
off
.
What
was
in
them
?
You
don

t

secret
stuff
.
All
we
’
ve
heard
is
guesses
—
fissile
materials
,
radioactive
dusts
,
bacteria
,
viruses
.
.
.
Now
suppose
that
one
type
happened
to
have
been
constructed
especially
to
emit
radiations
that
our
eyes
would
not
stand
—
something
that
would
burn
out
or
at
least
damage
the
optic
nerve
.
"
Josella
gripped
my
hand
.
"
Oh
no
,
Bill
No
,
they
couldn
’
t
.
.
That
’
d
be
—
diabolical
.
.
.
.
Oh
,
I
Can
’
t
believe
—
Oh
no
,
Bill
!
"
"
My
sweet
,
all
the
things
up
there
were
diabolical
.
Do
you
doubt
that
if
it
could
be
done
,
someone
would
do
it
?
Then
suppose
there
were
a
mistake
,
or
perhaps
an
accident
—
maybe
such
an
accident
as
actually
encountering
a
shower
of
comet
debris
,
if
you
like
—
which
starts
some
of
these
thin8s
popping
.
"
Somebody
begins
talking
about
comets
.
It
might
not
be
politic
to
deny
that
—
and
there
turned
out
to
be
so
little
time
,
anyway
.
"
Well
,
naturally
these
things
would
have
been
intended
to
operate
close
to
the
ground
,
where
the
effect
would
be
spread
over
a
definitely
calculable
area
.
But
they
start
going
off
out
there
in
space
,
or
maybe
when
they
hit
the
atmosphere
—
either
way
,
they
’
re
operating
so
far
up
that
people
all
round
the
world
can
receive
direct
radiations
from
them
.
.
.
"
Just
what
did
happen
is
anyone
’
s
guess
now
.
But
one
thing
I
’
m
quite
certain
of
—
that
somehow
or
other
we
brought
this
lot
down
on
ourselves
.
And
there
was
that
plague
,
too
:
