## Resource

The In-betweens continue with a classic. Amazingly, the Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy did not win a Hugo, so Aleksei selected it. Catherine and Aleksei talk about the future of artificial intelligence, sci-fi where the Earth is destroyed, and of course, what question would prompt the answer 42. Few science fiction books are as beloved as Hitchhiker's Guide, and for good reason. This is your friendly reminder to never leave home without your towel.
