Author H.G. Wells' Influence Continues With Publication Of Short Story

Author H.G. Wells is known for an array of popular stories that have stood the test of, well, time, including "The Time Machine," "The War of the Worlds" and "The Invisible Man."

Wells has been back in the news this week because of the publication of a long-forgotten short story called "The Haunted Ceiling."

To learn more about Wells’ continuing influence — and the new Star Wars film "Rogue One" — we talked with Bob Beard and Joey Eschrich of ASU’s Center for Science and the Imagination.

Steve Goldstein was a host at KJZZ from 1997 to 2022.
