What a hoot!!!! I love it.

I think Paolo is correct in the timing, since Mariner 2 is mentioned.

I used Willy Ley's book on the Mariner 4 Mars flyby for a ninth grade science report that I had to give verbally in front of the class. My science teacher raved!!!!! Thanks Willy.....

Back then, in 1967 (science report year), it was still possible to dream of a near future walking the solar system.

Now, I wish that wonder on my Grandsons.

Guess what... I found another one. This one has its year shown in Roman letters - it is at least 1963 or earlier:

The Sky and the Telescope

I wonder what you think about this one....
