Here is a story of the first man to reach Mars — and who, like Bell’s unknown rival, didn’t get the credit — until he came back from the dead!" Today's story is "On Mars We Trod," a story written by Otto Binder and published in Issue 3 of Universe Science Fiction. This story was published under the pen name Eando Binder, used at the time by Otto Binder. Otto shared the pen name with his brother, Earl Andrew Binder.
