Upon examination they discover that it is not an alien ship, but a time machine with a scientist from the 22nd century at the controls. He explains that he was chosen as the first test pilot for it. He was supposed to travel back to the beginning of time but had to make an emergency landing in the 21st century. The machine suddenly kicks back in and takes Astro and Ochanomizu back to the age of the dinosaurs along with the test pilot. During the course of their adventure it dawns on the test pilot and Ochanomizu that they are in fact related. He is Ochanomizu&#8217;s great grandson but he refuses to share any of the time machine technology when he drops Astro and his great grandfather back in the 21st century on his way back home. He says that if a time machine is built by Ochanomizu some wicked person will surely misuse it. But Ochanomizu tells Astro he feels encouraged to research time machines himself knowing they will be invented in the next century.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One night, a time machine from the 22nd century makes an emergency landing on the premises of Dr. Ochanomizu.
