US Tugs: A Short Story

US Tugs: A Short Story

When robots become as smart as humans, will we be smart enough to help them?

Jax is new on the job and alone in flight control at US Tugs when one of the orbiting spacecraft has trouble. And then another, and another. But no matter what Jax does, the only response he could get from the robots was, “Need help”.

He couldn't figure it out and he thought it would cost him his job.

He didn't know it could lead to a national security crisis.
