Unlike Rocket Age, the setting isn't our solar system but another that is admittedly very similar to a pulp conception of ours.Treyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04647628467658839351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8302487761596456689.post-91915081785946462682022-07-04T10:23:30.130-04:002022-07-04T10:23:30.130-04:00Sounds like fun.

In the last month alone I've read three different short stories that feature derelict ships with an invisible monster on board, including one by Andre Norton. At this point my first response to finding an "empty" ship would be to vent all the atmosphere and do the exploration in hard vacuum - and I'd still drag along a paint sprayer from the ship's workshop just in case the thing hasn't become an invisible asphyxiated corpse. Because I'll tell you, if Jonny Quest taught me one thing, it's that paint is the kryptonite of invisible critters everywhere.<br /><br />I wonder, is the trope well known enough to turn it into a trap? Have the wounded survivor turn out to be a pirate/hijacker who's using the "invisible monster" story as a distraction while he steals your ride?
