THE FANTASITE .... 25

THE GREAT EYE -AM
by O. MIGOSH

THE GREAT SCIENTIST wanted to see what was at the End of Everything. That question had always intrigued him. He knew there must be an End of Everything, far out at the edge of space--and there must be something there.

Now, at last, after years of working on the problem, he was going to achieve his dream! He gazed fondly at his Machine--of shining metal and glass and levers and tubes. He had just completed it. He had just tightened the last screw into place. Now all that was left to do was to enter it, and go speeding on his Ultimate Adventure. He was not afraid; he knew the machine would work.

There were more than Universes. There were Cosmoses. All the Cosmoses together were contained in the final Space. There could be nothing beyond that. This Machine would send him bursting out of each succeeding Cosmos, each one acting as a tremendous catapult to hurl him outward to the next one, until . . . finally he would reach a point where there simply weren't any more. Then he would be at the End of Everything. 

Now was the time. Without a quaver--for he was a brave man--he stepped into his Machine, closed the door, pulled the lever, and --

Woosh! He was gone. In about one second he had left his hPlanets and his Solar System and his Galaxy and his Universe and his Cosmos, and was looking back and seeing his Cosmos fade away into a little pinpoint. He wasn't really He any longer, but rather he was a lot of Atoms, or Pure Force, or Essence of Light, or Something Like That, speeding along; but yet he retained his identity and his original ambition, to see what was at the End of Everything. 

Ever outward he went--out and out. With the swiftness of light he went --swifter and swifter and swifter. Speed piled upon speed, accelerating multiplied upon acceleration with ever mounting fury. (Next Page)
