Synopsis
The world had never seen anything like it. It was the biggest World's Fair-style event Earth would ever see: "The Festival of Earth," which would encompass an entire island off the coast of Florida, was opening soon. It was an incredible sight: a mini-metropolis of futuristic architecture. The place had an unreal crystalline appearance, and it seemed to spread in cubes and turrets and spires over the island, with color springing from every surface and outline as if viewed through a prism.
The Festival of Earth would feature the spirit of the newly born twenty-first century, crystallized in a form of architecture, which embodied the history and culmination of a thousand years of human achievement. Here, on American soil, the world would soon see staggering advances in electronics, astronautics, nucleonics, ultrasonics, psychomatics, ballistics, and many other fields--Science triumphant!
There was only one thing wrong with the Festival of Earth... it had been taken over by aliens!
