Happy Landings!
Replace Mister X in the Control Room of the
rocket in the lighthouse, tied up in that chair with rope climbing rope that
would hold an elephant, with Number 1 sealed in the nose cone of the red one
rocket and you have roughly the same scenario. The interior of the rockets
being the one and the same. The Girl Who Was Death asked Mister X to think of
her when he hits town. Who would Number 1 be thinking of, once the rocket
re-entered the Earth’s atmosphere to eventually impact with the ground, or
splash into the sea? With the control set at “low orbit” it wouldn’t take long
before that orbit deteriorated. Perhaps the red 1 rocket, like Professor
Schnipp’s rocket was destined for London, taking Number 48, 2 and the former
Number 6 home. But as it was, Mister X managed to escape the bonds that secured
him in that chair, unlike Number 1. He was sealed in the nose cone of the
rocket and there would be no escape from his fate. Unless the hatch with a
handle on the one side, had a wheel on the other, by which to release the hatch.
But if it’s anything like the hatch in Professor Schnipp’s rocket…………it didn’t!
