"
I
hope
it
is
,
"
Captain
van
Tromp
said
soberly
,
"
but
I
did
not
take
your
statements
as
lies
,
Jubal
;
I
took
them
as
simple
truth
.
"
"
Eh
?
But
I
assure
you
they
were
not
.
I
was
spinning
fancy
words
,
extemporizing
.
"
"
No
matter
.
Inspiration
or
deduction
–
I
think
you
told
the
truth
.
"
The
skipper
of
the
Champion
hesitated
.
"
Except
that
I
would
not
call
Mike
an
ambassador
–
I
think
he
’
s
an
expeditionary
force
.
"
Caxton
’
s
jaw
dropped
.
Harshaw
did
not
dispute
him
but
answered
with
equal
soberness
.
"
In
what
way
,
sir
?
"
Van
Tromp
said
,
"
I
’
ll
amend
that
.
It
would
be
better
to
say
that
I
think
he
’
s
a
scout
for
an
expeditionary
force
,
reconnoitering
us
for
his
Martian
masters
.
It
is
even
possible
that
they
are
in
telepathic
contact
with
him
at
all
times
,
that
he
doesn
’
t
even
need
to
report
back
.
I
don
’
t
know
–
but
I
do
know
that
,
after
visiting
Mars
,
I
find
such
ideas
much
easier
to
swallow
?
and
I
know
this
:
everybody
seems
to
take
it
for
granted
that
,
finding
a
human
being
on
Mars
,
we
would
of
course
bring
him
home
and
that
he
would
be
anxious
to
come
home
.
Nothing
could
be
further
from
the
truth
.
Eh
,
Sven
?
"
"
Mike
hated
the
idea
,
"
agreed
Nelson
.
"
We
couldn
’
t
even
get
close
to
him
at
first
;
he
was
afraid
of
us
.
Then
he
was
ordered
to
go
back
with
us
and
from
then
on
he
did
exactly
what
we
told
him
to
do
.
He
behaved
like
a
soldier
carrying
out
with
perfect
discipline
orders
that
scared
him
silly
.
"
"
Just
a
moment
,
"
Caxton
protested
.
"
Captain
,
even
so
–
Mars
attack
us
?
Mars
?
You
know
more
about
these
things
than
I
do
,
but
wouldn
’
t
that
be
about
like
us
attacking
Jupiter
?
I
mean
to
say
,
we
have
about
two
and
a
half
times
the
surface
gravity
that
Mars
has
,
just
as
Jupiter
has
about
two
and
a
half
times
our
surface
gravity
.
Somewhat
analogous
differences
,
each
way
,
on
pressure
,
temperature
,
atmosphere
,
and
so
forth
.
We
couldn
’
t
stay
alive
on
Jupiter
?
and
I
don
’
t
see
how
Martians
could
stand
our
conditions
.
Isn
’
t
that
true
?
"
"
Close
enough
,
"
admitted
van
Tromp
.
"
Then
tell
me
why
we
should
attack
Jupiter
?
Or
Mars
attack
us
?
"
