The story follows two rival amateur astronomers in a small American town who both claim discovery of a new meteor. When the meteor proves to be made of solid gold, their competition intensifies. Meanwhile, an eccentric inventor develops a device capable of controlling where the precious celestial object will fall. More social satire than science fiction, the novel lampoons human greed, obsession, and vanity. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
