		The planet Mars or "Malacandra," is an ideal world where the inhabitants coexist in harmony and peace.

		Out of the Silent Planet is not, however, strictly (or mainline) science fiction itself.
		In Out of the Silent Planet a middle aged professor, Elwin Ransom, who reminds one of both Lewis and J. Tolkien, is kidnapped by a scientist and an adventurer (Edward Rolles Weston and Richard Devine) and taken with them on a space vehicle to Mars (though they initially give only its solar name, “Malacandra”).
		After that occurred it was called the “silent planet”, because it was fallen, out of touch and communication with the rest of the universe.

	Back to the Garden: the Eden Myth in Out of the Silent Planet
		In Out of the Silent Planet, however, Lewis upsets this notion and instead gives the reader an otherworldly yet beautiful description of the Martian landscape of Malacandra, with a subtle, silent nod in the direction of previous authors who have traditionally portrayed the planet as lifeless and dead.
		A third element of the Biblical story of the Garden of Eden that is represented in Out of the Silent Planet is the absence of the knowledge of sin or evil and the resulting absence of any manifestation of sin or evil until it is introduced by an outside force.
		Lewis’s Out of the Silent Planet would be a good science fiction genre novel on the basis of its plot alone, but it is the moral dimension of this novel that makes it stand out as a work of quality literature.

		What happened was, that King's X was on a flight going to Virginia and on the plane, I finally decided to play some of this stuff for Doug and Jerry, because I had just been keeping it to myself.
		Unfortunately, what happened was that we had worked so hard on the third album, and a couple of us were married with kids, that it nearly caused us to quit the band -- we just couldn't quite handle dedicating our whole lives to it and having nothing else but that.
		We started out on a small label (Megaforce) that understood us and worked hard; on that label we had more success than we did on Atlantic.

	Out of the Silent Planet - Space Trilogy 1 by C.S. Lewis Detailed Book Review
		Ransom who fears that they mean him harm runs away, but after meeting up with the peaceful "Hrossa" race realises that the Sorns are only interested in finding out about earth as they describe it as the silent planet where they can not hear what is going on.
		It gives detailed descriptions of the planet as well as telling the extremely philosophical discussions held by the man and the aliens he has encountered.
		It states that the truths are known to everyone, and nothing is surprising except to humans, because the Oyarsa of earth had, in the past, become dark (evil) and disconnected from the universe.

	Critical Summary and Overview - Surprised by Joy
		In a varied and comprehensive writing career, Lewis carved out a sterling reputation as a scholar, a novelist, and a theologian for three very different audiences.
		He thus rejected out of hand the notion that an artist was obligated to lay bare the private life--either for the sake of celebrity or for its putative insights into his or her literary works.
		Freed from the notion that the past was invariably wrong and that the present always the barometer of truth, Lewis was able to confront the possibility that Christian message could have validity even in the twentieth century.

	CBU - Honors Journal - Out of the Silent Planet: A Journey to the Medieval Past - Randy Hude
		Seen from this angle, the narrative of Out of the Silent Planet can be viewed as a description not only of Ransom's adventures but also of Lewis's own search for the sense of order, duty, and obedience which pervaded the medieval past.
		One of the ways he does this is through stories like Out of the Silent Planet that reexamine old truths, and question whether they are actually worth discarding.
		Accepting this view makes sense out of the final sentence of the novel, written by Ransom to Lewis the narrator: "The way to the planets lies through the past; if there is to be any more space-travelling, it will have to be time-travelling as well" (160).

		And yet in another way it is prophetic stuff, pointing out what would happen if people who hold views like those of Professor Weston steered the course of our future, at a point when such people dominated the "intelligentsia" of the Western World.
		But Earth is the "silent planet," whose own Oyarsa rebelled long ago, and after a war in the heavens was cast down and confined to Earth's atmosphere.
		But as the last chapter points out, the men's return to Earth is not the end of the story by a far cry.
