In der Zentrale von Mondbasis Alpha 1 starrte Commander John Koenig entsetzt auf den wandgroßen Sichtschirm. Von der Oberfläche des geheimnisvollen Planeten Psychon Stieg eine weißleuchtende Energiekugel mit phänomenaler Geschwindigkeit in die Höhe. Entsetzt dachte Koenig an Torens und Fraser, die beiden Piloten des Scout-Bootes Eagle Eins.
Der Eagle lag genau auf dem Kurs des Energieballes!
»Commander — das Ding rast genau auf uns zu!« klang Frasers heisere Stimme aus dem Lautsprecher in der Kommando-Zentrale.
Hilflos saß John Koenig in seinem Kontursessel.
»Macht, daß ihr wegkommt!« brüllte er verzweifelt. »Weicht aus! Verdammt ...«
Seine Stimme erstarb.
Ein weißer Blitz zuckte über den Sichtschirm, tauchte alles in grelles Licht und schien Koenig die Augen aus dem Kopf zu brennen.
Dann herrschte Stille.
Eagle Eins sendete nicht mehr ...
At the headquarters of Moon Base Alpha, Commander John Koenig stared in horror at the wall-sized screen. From the surface of the mysterious planet Psychon, a white glowing energy ball rose at phenomenal speed. Koenig thought in horror of Torens and Fraser, the two pilots of the scout ship Eagle One.
The Eagle was exactly on the course of the energy ball!
"Commander - this thing is hurtling towards us!" came Fraser's hoarse voice from the loudspeaker in the command center.
John Koenig sat helplessly in his chair.
"Make sure you get away!" He roared desperately. "Dodge it! Damn it ..."
His voice died.
A white flash of lightning flashed over the screen, bathed everything in bright light and seemed to burn Koenig's eyes out of his head.
Then there was silence.
Eagle One stopped broadcasting ...
