Dimension X

And the Moon Be Still as Bright (Dramatized)

By: Ray Bradbury

Explorers from Earth have wiped out the Martian race with chicken pox. But only one man is willing to stand up for the civilization they left behind. Based on a story from Ray Bradbury's The Martian Chronicles, this episode of Dimension X originally aired on September 29, 1950.

Featuring "adventures in time and space told in future tense", Dimension X aired over NBC from April 8, 1950, through September 29, 1951. The series adapted stories by the modern masters of science fiction, including Ray Bradbury, Robert Heinlein, Clifford Simak, Theodore Sturgeon, and many others.

Critic reviews

"The landmark series was Dimension X, which was broadcast by NBC....It was the first radio series to treat science fiction in an adult way." (Mike Ashley, Transformations: The History of the Science-Fiction Magazine 1950 to 1970)

Nostalgia

Nostalgia por una civilización extinta. Nostalgia por algo más allá de nuestra naturaleza dual. Mi cuento predilecto de las Crónicas Marcianas.

The sound is terrible.Can't hear the story at all

What disappointed you about Dimension X?

Sound needs improvement, otherwise waste of money…

What could Ray Bradbury have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Performance is intolerable.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

There's a background sound that makes it extremely difficult to hear the narrator.
