'There is nothing we can do about any of those things.' Dyson, who had said the words almost to himself, suddenly remembered that he had spoken them to the astronaut's father.

Cutler shook his head. 'You're wrong, Mr Dyson. We can do plenty. We can destroy Mondas!'

'But that's impossible!' Barclay broke in. 'Impossible is not in my vocabulary, Dr Barclay.'

'How do you propose to do it then, General?'

'We'll use the Z-bomb.'

After a long silence, Barclay voiced the general feeling. 'But you can't do that!'

'I can--and I will! '

'What about the radiation effect on Earth?' asked Dyson.

'That's a chance we'll just have to take.' Cutler picked up the cigar he had previously discarded. Polly, standing close by, noticed that his hand was no longer trembling. The opportunity for action must have steadied his nerves.

'What exactly is the Z-bomb, General?'

Cutler turned to answer Ben's question. 'It is a bomb that could, if rightly timed, split this planet of ours right in half. Two or three of them are positioned in strategic points around the globe. We have one, and the means for delivering it—square on Mondas ! '

Dr Barclay still seemed unable to grasp the full implications of the General's decision. 'You can't use the Z-bomb unless you have instructions from Geneva.'

Cutler sneered. 'Don't worry, fella—I'll get instructions, right here and now.'

He walked across to the R/T console. 'Get me Geneva!'
