Clark Carrados: Fantasia sobre un cronomóvil

This issue of *La Conquista del Espacio* (#407, May 1978) presents "Fantasía sobre un Cronomóvil" by Clark Carrados, a science fiction novella about time travel. Wealthy businessman Alex Beard reluctantly loans his brilliant mathematician friend Sixtus Schalkreuz 200,000 dollars to build a "chronomotor"—a time machine. After a year, Schalkreuz demonstrates the device works, projecting film footage from his own journey to the Secondary Era showing dinosaurs, prehistoric humans, and biblical scenes including Moses and the exodus. Beard agrees to test the machine himself, setting the controls for the year 2994 to find a cure for the common cold. After pressing the activation button, he experiences a gray void before arriving at his destination, though the text cuts off mid-sentence during his arrival.
