The four astronauts landed at the new planet. They were to search for the first four astronauts who preceded them but were now presumed dead.
The search squad came to a large lake, which told them there may be living creatures on the planet. They cautiously continued their search and soon found empty spacesuits, all four of them, scattered about. They could not find ashes or even skeletons. Suddenly, they felt extreme heat and could not breathe. They tore open their spacesuits and helmets. They perished from lack of oxygen.
The planet’s inhabitants now, once again, had a special meal.
