We Landed On Neptune's Moon Triton. Something Else Was There Already

A government geologist has spent twenty years mapping Triton, Neptune's frozen moon, from a desk in Arizona. When new orbital pictures show rows of pale shapes standing on its ice, spaced as evenly as fence posts, he tells NASA they are frost volcanoes. He knows ice never stands in rows. He just wants to walk among them.

So eight men land beside the rows. Up close, the shapes are tall figures carved from nitrogen ice, frozen mid-stride around an alien ship. The ones nearest it are running for its hatch. The hatch is sealed from inside.

Then, a mile from camp, the ice begins carving again. First the dome. Then the rovers. Then the crew, one man at a time, each caught in a moment he was certain nobody saw.

Every morning the likenesses are sharper, down to the bones inside them. Nobody knows what happens when one is finished. And the man who brought them here on a lie has something he can't let anyone see.
