But as the days go by it became bigger and bigger heading on a collision course with the Earth .It was not detected until by accident an astronomer saw it coming through a powerful telescope
A report was made to the authorities at Mt Palomar and with trepidation the authorities went into action.
Old animosities were put aside and the military of the major supers powers were contacted so as to devise a plan to stop it in its tracks .The public was not yet aware of it and so as not to cause panic the information was not disclosed.
Day 2
It was decided by the military authorities world wide that a joint effort be made to stop the invasion and nuclear rockets were dispatched to seek and destroy the in coming entity. But to no avail. The rockets proved ineffective against the twelve mile wide invader!
Day 3
The meteor seemed to accelerate further and further on at tremendous speed at the stationary Earth
Day 4
News of the meteor leaked out and fear and panic gripped the peoples of the Earth as never before.
Day 5
The weather patterns began changing rapidly and there were giant tidal waves now 100 feet in height, toppling over huge oil tankers in the now roaring sea like match sticks.

The meteor could now be seen the sky at daytime growing bigger and bigger!The world trembled in fear.Where it would crash no one knew. Panic grew!

A dark shadow fell upon the face of the Earth blotting out the sun as a huge highly metallic mother ship quickly placed itself between the incoming meteor and the Earth. The meteor was blasted to bits and the world watched in wonder and awe as the huge space craft slowly disappeared into the now clear summer sky.
Their prayers were answered!
Despite the horrid disarray of the Earth, the people of all nations rejoiced and gave thanks to their various gods for the miraculous rescue, perhaps knowing unconsciously that Earth was a favorite of the gods!
