“THE GREEN HILLS OF EARTH” by X-Minus One (OTR)
Is “THE GREEN HILLS OF EARTH” by Robert Heinlein the Best Science Fiction Short Story of all time? The answer: probably not, but this episode explores why it’s in the running! It also presents the episode of X-Minus One that adapted the story to a radio play format.
“The Green Hills of Earth” by Robert Heinlein is one of Ben’s favorite sci-fi stories because it explores the depths of humanity (especially through nostalgia and longing for home) on a canvas of the vastness and grandeur of a science fiction universe! It also projected science fiction to a broader audience when it was published by The Saturday Evening Post and was even quoted from while astronauts from Apollo 15 were on the moon.
