 How was Hennessy’s ship found?
They were something more—and something less—they were, in short, humanity's hopes for survival! [Transcriber's Note: This etext was produced from Worlds of If Science Fiction, September 1961.

Captain Gwayne cursed and rolled over, reaching for his boots. The two he'd drawn, Kaufman and Pinelli, seemed to be totally devoid of any sense of caution. But something had happened to the exploration party fifteen years back, and to the more recent ship under Hennessy that was sent to check up. The Sol-type sun must be rising, since there was a dim light. Even the deep gorge where they'd found Hennessy's carefully buried ship was completely hidden by the fog. Earth had ordered him to detour here, after leaving his load of deep-sleep stored colonists on Official World 71, to check on any sign of Hennessy. Young Kaufman grabbed at Pinelli, and they swung around together. One, at the front, was stuttering into life, and Gwayne dashed for it as the exit port slid back. At a gesture, the jeep rolled down the ramp, grinding its gears into second as it picked up speed. Then it cleared to show the mob of creatures doubling back on their own trail to confuse the pursuers. A spear crunched against the windshield from behind, and Gwayne caught it before it could foul the steering wheel. They'd have to get to the group with the cadets in a hurry or the horde would all vanish in the uneven ground, hidden by the fog. A blob dropped down, almost touching Gwayne. Gwayne jolted forward against the windshield, just as he made out the form of the eight-foot leader. The thing was standing directly ahead of him, a cadet on each shoulder. But Gwayne was out of the jeep before it stopped, diving for the figure. Another jeep had drawn up, and men were examining the cadets. Pinelli was either laughing or crying, and Kaufman was trying to break free to kick at the monster. The two were loaded onto a jeep while men helped Barker and Gwayne stow the bound monster on another before heading back. "I want that thing to live—and you're detailed to save it and revive it. I want to know what happened to Hennessy and why that ship was buried against detection.
