Texas City
Summary
A city of the future
Earth (namely from
2120AD),
where extreme environmental degredation has previously
forced inhabitants into domed cities such as this one.
It is from this city that a return of the Alphans to
the Earth is attempted.

Details
- Subject to earthquakes originating in
the nearby(?) Gulf of Mexico (now dry, at least near Texas City?).
- Apparent implications (but no certainty to the Editor)
that it is located near the Gulf of Mexico.
If so, the Gulf looks completely dissicated --
near Texas City anyway.
- Dr. Charles Logan is "Senior Space Scientist, Texas City."
Is he the SSS of Texas City only, or SSS more at large?
Speculation
- Is Texas City the former Houston or a superset of it?
The implication regarding the Gulf,
the identity of Dr. Logan,
that this rescue attempt is taking place from Texas City,
seem to add up to a reference to Houston,
as if the current real-life placement of NASA in Houston
flows into a continued outward focus within the city,
into this fictional future.
