Professor Jameson sought a way to preserve his body forever, and found it, not in embalming, but in something stranger, that would carry his mind across untold ages of space.

Neil R. Jones's 1942 story is part of the beloved Professor Jameson saga, in which a preserved human brain adventures among the machine-bodied Zoromes across a vast future cosmos. Imaginative, wide-eyed golden-age SF. Read it for a classic tale from one of early space opera's most inventive far-future series.
