Triumphantly used in victory at story's end!
The Battle of Tanark will ever remain an outstanding event in the history of Venus. The giant Space Rover showed no mercy to the cruel Tanarkans. With his powerful magnetic ray, Alan Starbuck literally picked the Tanarkans off the ground and dashed them to death in the streets below. They were never able to get within range of the big ship to bring their guns into play.
And so our Venusian friends returned to their own world. Geeko has been elected president. Neepo is his aide. And the wondrous feast that was given in our honor shall never be forgotten by us to our last hour on earth.
