vain?
520 "In the year 2100, mankind on Earth, settlers in a lunar
colony and aliens from the para-universe, a strange
universe parallel in time to our own, are faced with a
race against time to prevent total destruction of the
Earth. The invention of the Inter-Universe Electron Pump
has threatened the rate of hydrogen fusion in the sun,
leading, inevitably, to the possibilty of a vast explosion
-- and the vapourisation of the Earth exactly eight
minutes later . . . Only a few know the terrifying truth--
an outcast Earth scientist, a rebellious alien inhabitant
of a dying planet, a lunar-born human intuitionist who
senses the imminent annihilation of the Sun. They know the
truth--but who will listen? They have foreseen the cost of
abundant energy--but who will believe? These few beings,
human and alien, hold the key to the Earth's survival.
