An astronomical event that hasn't happened in over 2000 years is about to cause the sun and all the stars to be extinguished for 15 minutes. Scientists say people will go insane when this happens. A strange cult thinks that this is a sign that the world is about to end (sounds like the Heaven's Gate people to me). This is an Isaac Asimov story that reads better than it plays here. (from "The Critical X Minus One" by Jim Fanisher)
Cast (Goldin): Isaac Asimov (author), Mercer McLeod, John Larkin, Santos Ortega, Wendell Holmes, Ernest Kinoy (adaptor), Al Jazzbeaux Collins, Bob Hastings, Roy Fant, William Welch (producer), Daniel Sutter (director), Fred Collins (announcer), Floyd Mack (narrator)

@@jugghead-1975 thank you I've got that one, do u listen to CBSRMT Google it it's a fantastic site with 1800+ shows but I'm sure ule no of it?? X-Minus One also is just great. I'm from liverpool England and we have great shows but America has/had sublime radio esp between the 50's-80's in my opinion anyway and thanx for the tip on what to listen to.

@@simonmcgrath4112 yes mam I love mystery theater!! That's awesome you're from liverpool England! What I wouldn't give to travel overthere! I'm from Alabama but I'm an old marine corps veteran and I love anything ww11 ... and I'd rather watch some classic British sci fi than watch anything that passes for entertainment nowadays! BBC has some great otr shows as well ! Thanks for the reply , you rock

@@jugghead-1975 isn't it amazing that I can txt a message to u and u get it after up and down to satellites in 5 secs or so! I'm going to guess u were in Vietnam but ur interest in WW11 makes me think that's a hobby but whatever it is to be a Marine to me is of some standing and I tip my proverbial hat to u. What time is it there either 20-21 or 21-21? British Sci-Fi has had its gems in the past we're not so bad. Do u like talkin books at all? I listened to Green Mile yesterday wow what a mind SK has anyway I digress, keep on keeping on and take care.

One of Asimov's best stories that wasn't Robot, Foundation, or Empire.

There is no absence of light with as many stars shining. Stars give light. 😮 Good old time radio though.

Was X Minus One produced by the same people that did Dimension X? A lot of the same stories between the two.

It was essentially a revival of it on the same network (NBC), with new versions of the same episodes. That shifted in later episodes to new ones written/adapted by NBC staff writers.

So, these people have never invented basements? Storerooms? Light-proof containers of any kind?

Or electric lights? Torches? They can burn down their cities, but they can’t use fire as a light source.
