This is the Way the World Begins

Visit Earth! The exciting birthplace of man!

Now, courtesy of Starways, Inc., you can take your vacation anywhere . . . literally anywhere. Starting from the holiday planet of Paradiso, eager tourists can tavel to Mars, Venus, or more exotic planets scattered across the stars.

But curiously, there's one trip that Starways seems to discourage people from taking. And naturally that's the one Ram Burrell is most interested in: a trip to Earth.

Once Burrell finagles a ticket for the journey, he discovers why Earth is the least-visited planet in the galaxy . . . and why Starways aims to keep it that way.
