The Sands of Mars

Author: Arthur C. Clarke Published: 1951 I read: April 7 - April 9, 2008 Non-spoilery short description:

In the ~1990s, Mars is lightly colonized, and now to the point where there will be the first regular passenger transport between there and Earth. To kick this off for public relations, the first trip involves just a small crew and a science fiction author as a passenger/reporter.
