Cover Description

An old white man, bald with bushy eyebrows, stares seriously ahead. He is visible to his chest and wears an orange and yellow futuristic jumpsuit. Behind him, three rockets zoom through stars and by a dark planet. // A white man's head blurs as if in motion to the centre of the cover. He wears a red helmet. The background is half space, half a simple line drawing of a rocket. Below him, a yellow, telegraph-like message from the US Department of Astronautics with orders to "proceed to the nearest inhabited star and bring back living specimen"
