The story

At "Port Amberley", a secret aviation research station somewhere in England, a group of scientists are working on the prototype of a revolutionary new aircraft, a supersonic nuclear-augmented jet aircraft code-named M7, taking off and landing on water and capable of flying at up to 2,000 miles per hour. The project is intended to lead to M8, a spacecraft to explore space. The atmosphere at the laboratory is competitive rather than co-operative, with rivalry between the various scientists.
