Notes

• Published in 1965, this story makes the remarkable prediction that the first manned moon landing would occur on a July 20th (which it did in real life), and was otherwise off by only one year.

Continuity

• If this story is to be accepted as part of the canon, it appears to take place in an alternate timeline, as the first moon landing is shown to take place in 1970, not 1969 as established not only in real life, but numerous televised episodes, most recently DW: Day of the Moon.

Timeline

• This story occurs after TVC: Challenge of the Piper
• This story occurs before TVC: Time in Reverse
