All too soon, though, I received a radio call from Lomo Mission Control, back home in Leningrad, telling me that it was time to be heading back to Earth

After many, many months of travelling at light speed aboard my spaceship – called 'Lomo X-1' – I finally made it to the nearest galaxy, Andromeda, and touched down carefully upon a planet that I soon learned was called 'Guildford'. This is the photographic journal of my brief visit to that weird but wonderful, and very welcoming, little planet.
