ranger. Black space was lit with a glorious light. The emptiness, the loneliness, futility itself was gone,  conquered by the sound, destroyed by the light.
   And far away, but approaching closer and closer, the dark vehicle came. It loomed larger and larger; it
filled all space. Its attraction absorbed, its hunger enveloped the Observer and it  became One.

THEY FAILED
by Gertrude KUSLAN
Three men in a rocket for Mercury bound,
Were silent with drawning  dismay,
Fear crept at their hearts, but
they echoed no sound,
They were pioneers paving the way.
A miscalculation hid twisted their course
From Mercury into old Sol,
The Sun was now drawing them with its huge force,
straight into the flaming ball.
Higher and higher rose the bright flame,
Swifter and swifter it shot,
nearer and nearer; quickly it came, 
It's breath was hotter than hot.
The heat was so stifling it choked those within,
It smothered their dying breath.
It seemed to clamor and shout with unceasing din;
It brought the presence of Death.
The rocket was falling to the bright flame. 
Swifter and swifter it shot,
Burning itself, onward It came,
Displaying the martyr's lot .....

RETURNING
by Jack Chapman Miske

The Moon in the heavens is fearful tonight,
Rimmed 'round with cold, with
colour so weird.
All strange,  so strange and eerie a sight
To the depths of my being its
fire has seared.
The sky takes on an angry tone;
Through space there flies an
etheral flame*.
There is no choice, the die is
thrown;
Through space tonight the challenge came.
   Gone the fearful fire cold,
For Luna like a comet soaring,
Ringed about with light of gold,
Toward the Birth comes leaping, roaring.
Luna, queen of Tellus' skies,
Creatures of light, child of
Earth,
Luna, idol of worshiping eyes,
Luna returns to the place of
her birth.
