I may be wrong in my suppositions as to the presence of gravity in space, especially where I say "beyond Gravitational attraction". I have always thought that gravitational attraction ended a certain distance from the planet's surface, the distance pertaining to the size of the particular planet. For all I know, though, the gravitational attraction of one planet might extend through space, until it meets that of another planet at a point where forces are equalized by each other. Perhaps you would be able to set me straight on this problem.

Gravitational attraction of a body in space goes on indefinitely, to the limits of the universe, theoretically, although lessening with the square of the distance in an inverse manner, which makes its influence infinitesimally negligible even at a comparatively near point insofar as distance in space goes.

A space ship can "dive" in space, simply by heading toward a planet, or a sun. This gives the direction we know as "down."—Ed.

Sirs:

For two years I have read your Amazing mag, and I have found it the best on the market. I have always wanted to write and now I have finally got up enough courage.

I have just finished the Sept. issue and I thought it was the best issue you put out in a long time. I rate the five best stories as follows:

1. The Vengeance of Martin Brand—A great story, but did not care for ending. I thought Martin would marry Kathleen.

2. Peace Mission to Palentoid X—Good; how about more from Swain?

3. Vengeance on Venus—Good, it is different.

4. Convoy in Space—Fair, same old story.

5. Blitz Against Japan—Doesn't click for future mag.

The stories on a whole were very good. I would like longer stories and less shorts. Nelson S. Bond sure laid an egg with his Lancelot Biggs story. The Observatory was very good, wish it was longer. Tell G. H. Irwin not to be so cruel with his endings. How about some more P. F. Costello, Burroughs, and Adam Link stories? How about a good interplanetary war yarn? Well that covers about everything, and you can rest assured as long as your mag. is as good as it is now I will remain satisfied.

Sirs:

Strange that you should give such a build-up to your poorest story!

I expected 'Robotcycle for Two' to be a story that would entertain, please, fill me with wonder.
