"Her name, X-20. Her type: an experimental interceptor. Recent history: a crash landing in the Mojhave Desert after a thirty-one hour flight nine hundred miles into space. Incidental data: the ship with the men who flew her disappeared rom the radar screen for twenty-four hours. But the shroud that cover mysteries are not always mae out of tarpaulin, and this man will soon find out on the other side of a hospital door."

classification: drama

Story: Three astronauts who have returned to earth mysteriously disappear one by one as if they never existed.

summary: OKAY! Enough with these existential "no one knows me" where have I been, insert me into some random setting shows! That's three in the last two tapes! I am getting very annoyed, although this one has probably been the strongest episode out of any of them.......blah.

"Once upon a time there was a man named Harirngton, a man named Forbes, a man named Gart. They used to exist but they don't any longer. Someone or something took them somewhere, at least they are no longer a part of the memory of man. And as to the X-20 supposed to be housed in this hanger, this tool does not exist. And if you have any questions concerning the aircraft and three men who flew her, speak softly at them, and only in The Twilight Zone.
