   universe again..."  An unusually long pause followed, "...but I don't   
   know which part.  We seem to have changed our position in space."  A

   	"Several large, artificial constructions are approaching us,"   
   ZORAC announced after a short pause.  "The designs are not familiar, but   
   they are obviously the products of intelligence.  Implications: we have   
   been intercepted deliberately by a means unknown, for a purpose unknown,   
   and transferred to a place unknown by a form of intelligence unknown.   
   Apart from the unknowns, everything is obvious."
