15. Summary This story is about the people of Earth moving to Mars. Particularly one family is looked upon with scrutiny. These people moved and in the beginning the father immediately wanted to go back to Earth. One day, His daughter can in and said that all the rockets are blown up and the people cant leave Mars. The father begins to build his own rocket and won't eat any food grown on Mars. Slowly, he realizes that everything is changing; peoples skin is getting darker and their eyes are turning yellow. Then he realizes that he was slowly accepting Martians and their traditions. Then one day, the Earth people come back and think that all the old Earth people were Martians and the cycle begins again.
