"CAPTAIN KAYE" is the reported pseudonym for the subject of this Daily Mirror silly-season headline: "Retired US Marine claims he spent 17 years on MARS protecting five human colonies from Martians" (23 June). "He added that training took place on a secret moon base called Lunar Operations Command, Saturn's moon Titan, and in deep space...Captain Kaye says he retired after a 20 year tour of duty, describing a retirement ceremony on the moon that he claims was presided over by VIPs including ex-Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld." Gosh.
These great hollow globes of artificial super-metals, and artificial transparent adamant, ranged in size from the earliest and smallest structures, which were no bigger than a very small asteroid, to spheres considerably larger than the Earth. (Olaf Stapledon, STAR MAKER)
