Eyes That Watch

** "Eyes That Watch" by Raymond Z. Gallun is a science fiction story from a time when space exploration was still a dream. It throws light on exploration, the edges of science, and the risks of having too much power. Sam Conway comes back from Mars with a heavy heart from what he saw there. He carries a cube full of Martian secrets that can change science forever. As he messes around with the Martian data, things go wrong, and he accidentally lets loose a huge amount of atomic energy that could destroy everything. A strange, unseen force steps in to help Sam deal with the mess he's made, teaching him that sometimes the greatest discoveries come with the biggest dangers. The tale is about facing the effects of our choices and a warning about dreaming too big. **
