Sometime this month, company somewhere in
the United States will start working on an eight
foot steel conical chamber If you didn't know
what it was, you might mistake it for diving
bell - and in fact, it will operate much like one
E.. but in reverse. For il all goes WELL sometime
next year this capsule will be in orbit around the
earth - with man in it.
Who he will be no one knows yet. But we do
know that we can put him into space. The four
ton Atlas that went into orbit last December
proved we could get the weight up. Now all we
need is space capsule that will keep man alive
- and get him back to earth the same way This
steel cone will be it.
Here, to the best of our current scientific
KNOWLEDGE, is what that first history-making
orbital flight will be like:
