Mack Reynolds: Mercy Flight

Summary

It was a lesson you learned in the Space-Forces, and you learned it good: Out in the lonely void, when you get in a jam, you're on your own ... it's you against everything and everybody. Anything goes.... He was transporting a desperately ill little girl from Luna to earth after an atomic explosion. But his radio was out and he could not hear anything from the landing grid on earth which meant both of them would die. Unless another solution was found in time. Listen to this story and enjoy the depths of human ingenuity.
