Inflexure
by H. L. Gold
Some rogue object passing through the solar system manages to merge together all people
from all times of Earth.
I’m over the Caroline Islands, longitude 158° 23´ west, latitude 8°
30´ north. There’re millions of people drowning all around me. What shall I do?
“Inflexure” by H. L. Gold, Astounding, October 1934.
