| Summary | "Honeymoon in Bedlam" by Nelson S. Bond is a science fiction novel written in the early 1940s. This whimsical tale follows the misadventures aboard the spaceship "Pegasus" as the crew, including newlywed Lieutenant Johnny Larkin and his bride Lorraine, embark on a perilous mission to investigate the mysterious cosmic newcomer Caltech VI. The book blends elements of humor, space exploration, and the challenges of commitment in marriage within the backdrop of interstellar travel. In the story, the crew of the "Pegasus" is interrupted from their honeymoon activities when they are assigned to investigate Caltech VI, a recently discovered planet that has caused chaos in the solar system. Despite initial reluctance from Captain Bowman, the ship lands only to get trapped in a sticky mass of alien matter. Through Johnny's ingenuity—and an unexpected twist involving fermentation that results from a shipment meant for Mars—the crew ultimately escapes the clutches of this sticky predicament. Amidst this chaos, the dynamics of the newlyweds play out humorously, providing a light-hearted contrast to their dangerous situation and leaving readers with a memorable exploration of love and adventure in the cosmos.
