M42

The future: when engineers utilize force fields to construct invisible spaceships. Miles Wendel and his fellow crewmembers command the small Astral Research Vessel "Altair" and journey to distant stars and nebulae. Their ship, capable of flying at 'hyper speeds' through alternate dimensions, allows them to reach their destinations in minutes. On their second voyage: Primitive beings, similar to the race near WR104, lurk in the bright, colorful gas and dust cloud of Orion. Ensuing struggles force the crew of the Altair to plead for help from the more advanced aliens, putting them into another compromising situation.
