Summary
On Venus, special TV 21 reporters sort out all the planet's news and feed the selected material into a computer. The type is transformed into radio waves and fed into the cyclon, where the waves are atomised and blasted from the aerial at one hundred times the speed of light. In Unity City, this process is reversed using a receiver aerial, after which the news story is passed to the London editorial offices.
