Summary of science fiction

A mother and lecturer, Vashti, who lives in the
southern hemisphere, talks to her son Kuno,
who is in the northern hemisphere, via a round
plate which functions as a sort of videophone.
Kuno wants his mother to come and visit him
where he lives in the northern hemisphere, as
he wishes to experience the stars, not from an
airship, but while standing on the surface of
the earth and directly exposed to them.
However, Vasthi vacillates and initially refuses
to go to see him, as she is reluctant to leave
her room.
Eventually, Vashti gives in and arranges to go
and visit her son, and makes the journey via an
airship. We are told that few people travel
anywhere these days, because everywhere on
the planet is virtually identical to everywhere
else. Airships have been preserved from a
former age when people used to travel to visit
things, whereas now everything is brought to
them in their rooms .
