Vol. 2, No. 2, Feb. 1965 on cover. No. 4 Saddle-stapled digest. Cover titled: "The Rescue". "Special Outer Space Issue" on cover. Sub-heading on table of contents: New Frontiers in Fiction. "The Woman Astronaut" is a one-act play. "Don't Touch Me I'm Sensitive" is listed in the table of contents and the even-numbered header pages of the story as "Don't Touch Me, I'm Sensitive". "Hans Off in Free Pfall to the Moon" is an apparent abridgment of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Unparalleled Adventure Of One Hans Pfaall" although the introduction to the story is very misleading as to the actual authorship.
