When the first space rocket lands on Mars, what will we find? Will we be welcomed with open arms or will the Martians treat us as invaders? Only one thing is certain someday a giant metal ship will take off from earth and travel through the black velocities of the silent states to descend at last in the upper Martian atmospheres. That day man will finally know the answers. The day we first land on Mars.
