On its [[front page]] for [[17 April]] 2065, ''[[TV Century 21 (in-universe)|TV Century 21]]'' reported that officials at [[Space City]] were "puzzled" by the loss of [[radio]] contact with ''WSW 193'', which had not been heard from since leaving [[Space Station Z 11]] on its journey to [[Earth]] via [[Mars]]. A [[Spokesman (Scoop!)|spokesman]] for World Space Ways was quizzed by [[Reporter (Scoop!)|a ''TV21'' reporter]] on the matter, telling them the ship was "the safest thing that [[Flying|flies]]" and that there was "absolutely no cause for [[alarm]]".

([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Scoop!

(short story)}}) which [[Jodrell Bank]] had previously tracked approaching Earth, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Earth in Peril! (short story)}}) bolted to its underneath. Steve gave [[Matthew Matic|Professor Matic]] orders to destroy the ship with all aboard should he fail to release the device before ''WSW 193'' entered Earth's [[atmosphere]]. [[Wilbur Zero|Commander Zero]] agreed with this judgement, commenting "It is either the 1,000 passengers in the space liner, or the rest of the world" for the front page of ''TV21'' on [[24 April]].
