Humanity has worked its painful way up the technological ladder and is ready to go to the moon. But surprises await our intrepid explorers, who have differing reasons for their presence on the mission. Will the agent of an oppressive government do the will of his masters, or will the revolutionary-in-secret win out and spark a revolution among the people back home? And what does an ancient artifact protected by a mysterious voice have to do with any of this?

Written in 1984 as a prequel to a novel series that never got off the ground, this is the first appearance in any form of this work.
