"I'm on Callisto now."
"Good, can you see any forms of life?"
"I'm surrounded by little blue men."
"Do they have a language?"
"I will ask them, see what happens."
There is no response.
"Wait a minute, although they don't speak, they are communicating through their minds. They are giving me mental messages. I think I'll call them the Telepaths."
"That is most amazing. Maybe these people can tell us an awful lot about the mind."
"Yes, they telepathize in English."
"That is very convenient, but how do they know English?"
"They say they know English because they are from England."
"From England, that is impossible."
"They say nobody has ever visited them from the other side before, but it is not impossible to be from England."
"The other side, what do they mean by that?"
"They say you only telepathize and become blue when you are dead."
"Now that is ridiculous. Do you expect us to believe you are in the land of the dead ?"
"They say I cannot return. I am the first spaceman to land on the planet of the dead."
"You must be joking."
"No."
"What is next then a visit from Christ?"
"You said it. There is a fantastic bright light, a thousand rainbows are forming and white horses are bringing on a magnificent gold carriage."
"And in there is..........."
"Can't you guess. He is dressed in white robes, has beautiful long flowing locks and a beard."
"My God earthlings have reached the other side by space travel."
The communication link suddenly went dead. Callisto, the moon of Jupiter turned a wonderful burnt ochre and cyan madder. A thousand glittering stars shone brightly in the night sky.
