"Nothing, sir," replied Tom. "Except more evidence that they changed over to atomic drive."
"That's enough" said Strong. "I'm going to send a report to Commander Walters. Is the teleceiver on the Polaris hooked up, Roger?"
"Yes, sir," replied Roger. "But Astro will have to start up the auxiliary generators to give you power."
"Very well, then," said Strong. "Corbett, you give Astro a hand on the power deck. And while we're gone, Manning, you go through that feed-line junk there in the corner and see if there's anything important in it!"
"Aye, aye, sir," replied Roger.
Strong and Hawks, followed by Tom and Astro, left the shack and hurried to the Polaris.
