| Summary | "First Stage: Moon" by Dick Hetschel is a science fiction narrative written in the mid-20th century. The story chronicles the experiences of the first astronauts to land on the Moon and their subsequent return to Earth, exploring themes of exploration, heroism, and the human condition amidst the backdrop of a politically charged era. The plot unfolds as a group of astronauts, each with their own motivations and doubts, embark on a historic mission to the Moon, filled with camaraderie and lighthearted banter as they navigate the risks and uncertainties of space travel. Upon their return, excitement gives way to tension as they face the reality of their fame and the potential repercussions of their journey, especially when a mysterious and menacing aircraft appears. The narrative captures the aspirations of the astronauts to deliver a message of peace and unity to humanity but is abruptly interrupted by the looming threat of violence, leaving readers with a sense of unease about the future of their pioneering endeavor.
