A Plea for a Coordinated Space Program
Dr Wernher von Braun makes a compelling case for a focused and driven program of rocket development leading to putting men in space. Perhaps what he's arguing against is existent in the space industry today: too many hand-wringers, bean counters and apologists. Lets just get stuck into it!! I wanna see people on Mars!!
The next installment takes into the realm we love so much. These UFO things… are they real, or as editor and party-pooper Jeffrey Logan suggests, are they just The Flying Saucer Myth.
