A:
Commander Charles "Chuck" Prescott [Marshall Thompson] is not so sure that his brother,Lieutenant Dan Prescott [Bill Edwards], is the correct choice for piloting the Y-13 intoouter space. Although Captain Ben Richards [Robert Ayres] of the Air Force Space Commandsays that Dan is the best pilot they have, he bucked the rules when flyingY-12, went into the ionosphere, had problems landing his ship, and thenpromptly ran to see his girlfriend, Tia Francesca [Marla Landi], before bothering toeven make out his report. Still, Capt Richards wants Dan to pilot theY-13, after he has been throughly checked out and briefed by Doctor Paulvon Essen [Carl Jaffe].Y-13 takes off with Dan at the controls. He climbs and climbs. At600,000 feet, when he is supposed to level off and begin his descent, hecontinues to climb, even firing his emergency boost. He climbs to1,320,000 feet (250 miles) and suddenly loses control of the ship andpasses through some meteorite dust, so he is forced to catapult.The next that is heard about Y-13 is a report to the New Mexico StatePolice that some Mexican farmer saw a parachute attached to some sort ofplane land near his farm on Route 17 about 10 miles south of Alvarado.Chief Wilson [Bill Nagy] has the presence to notify the military in case it hassomething to do with their recent rocket firing. Wilson meets withCommander Chuck and shows him the wreckage. No way could the pilot havesurvived the crash. Tests on the recovered aircraft show that theautomatic escape mechanism as well as the breaking chute operatedperfectly. Tests also reveal some sort of unknown encrustation on thehull, unusual because not x-rays nor infrared photography nor ultravioletwill pass through it.Later that night, a wheezing creature breaks into the New MexicoState Blood Bank in Alameda and drinks up a lot of the blood. The nextday, the headline in the Santa Fe Daily News reads "Terror Roams State"and tells of brutal and inhuman slaughtering of cows on a farm right nextdoor to where the Y-13 fell....
