This article is about the Robert A. Heinlein short story. For other uses, see Green Hills of Earth (disambiguation).
"The Green Hills of Earth" is a science fiction short story by American writer Robert A. Heinlein. One of his Future History stories, the short story originally appeared in The Saturday Evening Post (February 8, 1947), and it was collected in The Green Hills of Earth (and subsequently in The Past Through Tomorrow). Heinlein selected the story for inclusion in the 1949 anthology My Best Science Fiction Story. "The Green Hills of Earth" is also the title of a song mentioned in several of Heinlein's novels.
The Rhysling Award for speculative fiction poetry awarded by the Science Fiction Poetry Association (SFPA)[1] is named for the blind poet Rhysling in “The Green Hills of Earth.”[2]
Rhysling (crater)[3] on the Moon was named by Apollo 15 astronauts.[4][5] who quoted the last verse of Rhysling's song "The green hills of Earth"[6] (from this story) as their third moonwalk was ending.
