This week’s story is Hang Head, Vandal By Mark Clifton. On a desolate Martian plain, a discarded spacesuit stuffed with straw sways from a homing tower—left behind by a crew fleeing the silent guilt of having unknowingly ignited the slow, unstoppable destruction of an alien civilization hidden beneath the dust.
