The Longest Five Seconds of Your Life

A Walk at Dusk (Front)
Caspar David Friedrich

When I was in school, we used to play this writing game called ‘ What If ‘.

I want to do that  here today.

My question is: ” If people can’t survive in space and on other planets because our bodies would melt or explode and our robots would be crushed – what if we sent Vampires and Werewolves and other shapeshifters instead? They’re actually designed to rebuild themselves. It’s a great idea.

Well Anita, you might ask , would it be right to send monsters to other worlds where they could do all sorts of damage?

Hate to say it, but we have a history of doing that here on Earth- so if Monsters existed we’d be packing them into space ships and shipping them out into the Universe as fast as we could build the rocket ships.
