Moon Stories

I’m a big supporter of returning to the moon. I even wrote The Moon Before Mars: Why returning to the moon makes more sense than rushing off to Mars which contains some essays on why the moon should be a major part of our future. I’ve also written some stories that are set on the moon to show some possibilities. Here are all of my moon stories that you can find online. Most were published on my website or blog and can be read for free, but others were published on Kindle as part of a collection. They are listed as the most recent publication – or reposting – at the top.

Hope you enjoy.
