"Doomsday on Ajiat" by Neil R. Jones is an imaginative science fiction story from the past that centers on Professor Jameson’s bizarre experiment to cheat death. Jameson shoots his body into space, only to be found millions of years later, when his mind is transferred into a robot body by machine beings. The exciting narrative unfolds as these beings, called Zoromes, face a massive crisis: Earth's sun is threatened by meteorites and is about to explode. They crash on a wild, dangerous planet called Ajiat, where they have to fix their ship and flee before the sun blows up everything. The story combines themes of being alive, investigating new worlds, and finding a balance between humans and robots.

Summary
About the AuthorNeil Ronald Jones was an American writer who worked for the state of New York. His first story, "The Death's Head Meteor", was published in Air Wonder Stories in 1930, possibly recording the first use of "astronaut" in fiction. He also pioneered cyborg and robotic characters, and is credited with inspiring the modern idea of cryonics. Most of his stories fit into a "future history" like that of Robert A. Heinlein or Cordwainer Smith, well before either of them used this convention in their fiction.
