Somehow
that
frightened
him
.
It
was
too
round
a
number
.
He
turned
feverishly
to
the
controls
.
What
had
gone
wrong
?
That
frightened
him
too
,
for
he
could
see
nothing
wrong
.
Nothing
had
tripped
the
drive
-
lever
.
It
remained
firmly
geared
into
the
upwhen
drive
.
There
was
no
short
circuit
.
All
the
indicator
dials
were
in
the
black
safety
range
.
There
was
no
power
failure
.
The
tiny
needle
that
marked
the
steady
consumption
of
meg
-
megcoulombs
of
power
calmly
insisted
that
power
was
being
consumed
at
the
usual
rate
.
What
,
then
,
had
stopped
the
kettle
?
Slowly
,
and
with
considerable
reluctance
,
Harlan
touched
the
drivelever
,
curled
his
hand
about
it
.
He
pushed
it
to
neutral
,
and
the
needle
on
the
power
gauge
declined
to
zero
.
He
twisted
the
drive
-
lever
back
in
the
other
direction
.
Up
went
the
power
gauge
again
,
and
this
time
the
temporometer
flicked
downwhen
along
the
line
of
Centuries
.

Harlan
shifted
the
lever
.
Upwhen

Slowly

Very

Smash

Nothing

.
The
power
of
Nova
Sol
was
silently
being
consumed
,
at
an
incredible
rate
,
to
no
purpose
.
He
went
downwhen
again
,
farther
.
He
roared
upwhen
.
Smash
!
