Summary
First one up this tallest summit in the Solar System was a rotten egg ... a very rotten egg!

Bruce heard their feet on the gravel outside and got up reluctantly to open the door for them. He'd been reading some of Byron's poems he'd sneaked aboard the ship; after that he had been on the point of dozing off, and now one of those strangely realistic dreams would have to be postponed for a while. Funny, those dreams. There were faces in them of human beings, or of ghosts, and other forms that weren't human at all, but seemed real and alive?except that they were also just parts of a last unconscious desire to escape death. Maybe that was it.
