“Suppose we meet a whale that’s grown to ten times its normal size,” said Joe in a hollow voice. “And suppose it thinks we’re a sardine.”

“Let’s face that when it happens, Joe,” said the Professor. “Look how blue the water’s getting. What’s our depth, Captain?”

Captain Beaversmith, seated at the controls up forward, glanced at the depth gauge. “Three hundred and fifty feet. We’re below the level of safe aqualung diving.”

The Professor switched on the four bright spotlights outside the hull; they were controlled from inside so that they could be turned in any direction.

Once, a brilliant golden fish with blue spots moved up alongside them; it was fully six feet long.
