Theater Five: In Absence of All Intelligent Life

by George Bamber

A rocket military reconnaissance is sent to a distant planet. They land on a level strip of land, don their space suits and set off to explore for life. From samples of the air they find that they are able to take off their suits and breathe. They determine that although there is no sign of any living creatures a thousand years ago this planet had been inhabited by men similar to them who had wiped themselves out with nuclear weapons.
