"errata department: Ultra stories"
|
I had occasion to reread Silver Guardian and Code Name: Ultra recently, and in the course of doing so I noticed the same fairly egregious mistake in both of them. When I wrote those two stories, I had somehow acquired the idea that Reflection Nebula Messier 78, location of the Ultras' homeworld, is outside this galaxy. It is not; it's only about 1,350 light years from Sol, and can easily be resolved with consumer-grade telescopes. Eyrie Productions regrets the error. --G. -><- Benjamin D.
