Astounding Science-Fiction, Vol. XXIV No. 2, October 1939 This issue features the first installment of "Gray Lensman" by E. E.

Other fiction includes "Space Rating" by John Berryman, exploring mortality in space travel; "Episode on Dhee Minor" by Harry Walton, involving immortal-like inhabitants; "Shawn's Sword" by Lee Gregor, depicting a man mentally unsuited to modern spacefaring; and "Rust" by Joseph E. Kelleham, examining military machinery failure. Harold A. Lower provides a non-fiction article on supernovas and mad stars.
