Answer:
In the fall 1948 issue of Planet Stories, Ray Bradbury published a short story that the editor didn't even mention on the cover, yet this story, with the exclamatory title "Mars Is Heaven!", went on to become one of the most famous science fiction stories of all time. The first Earth expedition, comprising white men from Ohio, lands on Mars in 1960 on a "lawn of green grass" before a Victorian house in the midst of a small Midwestern town. Their instruments tell them the atmosphere is just like Earth's. The men want to run out to explore what one calls "Good old Mars!" (322). Captain John Black cautions his men against this impossible reincarnation of their youth, but nostalgia cannot be long resisted. They run off to what Black recognizes as Green Bluff, Illinois, his own childhood town. (Bradbury's fictional setting, which perhaps reflects his own native Waukegan, Illinois, exists in no real atlas but turns out to be a green bluff--that is, a verdant deception--indeed.) Even before they meet people and hear voices, through a window the crew see an untended piano on which sits the sheet music for "Beautiful Ohio." Then the people appear, all departed loved ones. The crew reel with joy, dismiss their own puzzlements, and scatter to the homes of those they had once mourned. Even Captain Black retires to his family, incredulous that Mars could possibly realize all their hopes, but seduced nonetheless. As he finally settles down to sleep in a bed shared with his now undead brother, Black thinks, just perhaps, this is all a mind trick, a ploy by telepathic Martians to disarm invading Earthmen. He looks up just in time to see the Martian impostor stab him to death. The narrator informs us that elsewhere the whole crew is slaughtered.
