THE NEW YORK TIMES, February 5, 1920
* Professor Robert Goddard
* Early rocket experiments
* Flight to Mars ???
The front page has a very bizarre report concerning early space travel. Professor Robert Goddard was currently experimenting with early rockets during this time. The front page has one column headlines that read:
* FIRST VOLUNTEER FOR LEAP TO MARS
* Capt. Claude Collins of Philadelphia Offers Himself to be Passenger in Rocket
* NAMES HIS CONDITIONS
* Requires That Communication Be Established and a Rocket Previously Landed on Planet
which is signed in type: Captain Claude R. Collins. See photos for complete text here.
Very interesting that this prestigious newspaper title would publish such a article and on the front page. Even till this day, a trip to Mars is still considered a far stretch.
Other news of the day throughout. Light browning, little irregular at the spine, otherwise good condition.
