Ben Amherst es un coleccionista de cree en Ganímedes en el año 2083. Aunque normalmente opera solo, se ve acompañado en una de sus rondas por un turista de la Tierra llamado Kirt Scaler. Scaler planea viajar con Amherst al pueblo de Aquia, y luego permanecer allí durante dos meses mientras Amherst continúa en sus rondas. Amherst encuentra a Scaler extrañamente bien informado acerca de las condiciones en Ganímedes para alguien que afirma nunca haber abandonado la Tierra antes. Al llegar a Aquia, Amherst y Scaler descubren que su principal operador, Carl Kent, ha desaparecido; su hija adolescente, Carol, continúa en su lugar. La desaparición de Kent es ominosa, ya que recientemente ha desarrollado un proceso para destilar creatina del musgo rojo. Mientras Aquia se ahoga en la inundación, Scaler pasa la mayor parte de su tiempo con Carol Kent.

He attended the University of Wisconsin, first as a chemical engineering major but later switching to English as his major, but contrary to common belief he did not graduate. On a bet, Weinbaum took an exam for a friend, and was later discovered; he left the university in 1923. He is best known for the groundbreaking science fiction short story, "A Martian Odyssey", which presented a sympathetic but decidedly non-human alien, Tweel
