Quote context

[...]

- But here again, Bellus and Zyra have changed position.

- Now, just how fast they've been moving, and their eventual destination are among the mathematical problems now being determined by our differential analyzer. We'll have the results in a few hours.

- Zyra is about the same size as our Earth.

- Both these bodies are coming into our solar system. If Bronson's readings are correct, they will destroy the Earth.

- How far away from us are they?

- The calculator will be precise. I would estimate about three billion miles.

- Billion? Let people start worrying 100 years from now.

- Mr. Randall, you've been flying ships faster than sound for many years. These bodies are moving thousands of times faster. They could be upon us in less than one year.

- Now, I repeat, all this depends on Bronson's findings being correct.

- The planet Zyra will pass very close to us, close enough to influence the tides.

- Oceans will be torn from their depths. Tidal waves hundreds of feet high will sweep in from the coasts. There will be giant earthquakes. Handfuls of people may survive if provisions are made.

- We'll make them, every possible effort.

- Whatever help my factories can give, we will give gladly.

At 1:00 on July 24th, Zyra, a new planet, will pass so close to the Earth, it will cause vast destruction. There is no doubt about the coming of Zyra. Remember, there is no doubt.
Astronomy is a very exact science. -Maybe so, but when they start telling me doomsday is just around the corner, we part company.
I weigh as much as a couple of lambs, three dozen chickens, one healthy farmer.
