Publisher's summary

Experience one of television’s greatest science-fiction series, The Twilight Zone - fully dramatized for audio! Featuring a full cast, music and sound effects, and today’s biggest celebrities in modern radio dramatizations.

Three U.S. astronauts blast off from Earth on an initial test flight in an experimental rocket-ship. But during the flight into space, the ship disappears from radar, then reappears. On return, the rocket-ship is hangared and put under a tarp, pending an investigation. One crewman is hospitalized for a leg broken on landing, and is visited by the other two. Next the pair go for a drink, and then one crewman phones his parents from a bar phone-booth - but they say they have no son!

Good - just a bit too clever for it's own good.

For a long time this seemed to be a really good episode. Strange, creepy, suspenseful, lots of "what's happening" uncertainty. All good Twilight Zone trademarks. Then it gets a bit too clever. Still an episode worth listening too. B+ for effort. ;-)
