Arms & Armour, 2013
The Foot Combat Armour of Henry VIII is one of the treasures of the Royal Armouries collection. It is one of a very few armours designed to protect every part of the body, and this article shows how the king’s armourers arranged this while still allowing the wearer freedom of movement.

Those fifteen words aptly sum up the disappointment of failing to achieve a long-held ambition. Yet, perhaps with hindsight, there can be some satisfaction in at least trying to attain that goal rather than not even attempting to reach it. It is a lesson that can be applied in many fields of human endeavor, and as words of wisdom to younger generations.

Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1958
A few years ago, space flight was only a gleam in the eyes of a few rocket enthusiasts; and now Mr. Edson, who is Assistant to the Director of Research and Development of the Department of the Army, feels secure enough to extrapolate the schedule of man's travel to the moon and the planets over the next few decades.

From the summary description we have given above of Keplerian orbits we can see, first of all, that it is practically impossible to put a device in a satellite orbit directly from the ground; in Keplerian mechanics the only possibility would be a horizontal launch; obviously the topography and the atmosphere raise insurmountable difficulties, and such ...

1960 was a monumentally busy and incredibly productive year for America’s dynamic new civilian space agency, NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration), which had been formally established just two years earlier. But the agency faced an uncertain future. With an election looming later that year, incumbent president Dwight D.
