Work Description

1962: Are you on the waiting list for a rocket trip to the moon or one of the planets? You may not have long to wait, for it has already been shown that men can be sent to outer space and returned safely to earth. It is a goal of scientists to extend space explorations with rockets to the moon and beyond, with and without astronauts.
