  Space Adventures by Alfred Coppel

  Sep 1, 202634 minS2

  In this episode, we’re diving into the psychological and atmospheric worlds of Alfred Coppel, a master of mid-century speculative fiction. First, we travel to the lunar surface in 'First Man on the Moon', originally published in a 1950 issue of Planet Stories . But this isn't a story of triumphant exploration; it is a dark, gripping look at an obsession so blinding that it leads to murder. Then, we shift our gaze to 'Touch the Sky', a 1955 tale of existential dread and anticipation that follows pilot Pete Moore on the final night before his own historic moonshot mission.
