X Minus One, “Lulu,” originally broadcast on October 31, 1957, is episode 118 of NBC Radio’s classic science-fiction anthology series. Adapted by George Lefferts from Clifford D. Simak’s novelette, the drama features Henry Norrell, Jan Miner, James Stevens, Nelson Olmsted, and Walter Black.

Three space travelers accompany Lulu, a highly advanced Planetary Exploration Robot that serves as both spacecraft and mission base. When the crew gives their machine a personal name—and poetry enters the picture—their routine exploration assignment takes an unexpected and humorous turn.

Old Time Sci-Fi Radio presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
