Professor Noah’s Spaceship


Professor Noah rescues all the animals from a dying planet, and during their journey of 40 days and 40 nights they plan to travel through a time-zone to take them hundreds of years into the future. At one point, the elephant must take a spacewalk to fix the time-zone guideance fin, which suggests that the time-zone is some sort of a wormhole or other time portal in space rather than mere reletavistic time dilation—and indeed there is actual time travel! —Michael Main
He put on a special space-suit, went out through the air-lock, and pulled the fin into shape.
A long parade of colorful animals marches toward a fat, finned spaceship in the
                distance.
