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.

Most people, unless they have studied aerospace engineering or astrophysics, are not aware of the complicated mathematical laws regulating spaceflight outside the Earth’s atmosphere or between planets in the solar system. Almost everyone has been influenced by science fiction movies, which since the fifties have been showing spaceships as cosmic ...

One of the most useful tasks to be carried out at the Space Station will be the making of large precision telescopes. It will become possible to assemble optics bigger than can be launched in one piece. A further step would be to take advantage of extraordinarily favorable conditions in space for testing and even manufacturing optics.
