Battle Over Rocket Fuel
Revived After New Test

big solid fuel boosters can be
developed on short timetables.
| He added that the firing
made the company confident it
can have solid rockets of one
million pounds thrust ready for
preliminary flight rating tests
within IA months after a con-
tract is awarded.
Two Bigger Rockets Due
DR.. Ernest E. Roberts, chief
technical expert in Aerojet-
Generals solid rocket effort,
also pointed to today's firing
as a very strong demonstration
of hiw fast solids can be de-
veloped." Hhe said the $40 mil
lion Air Force contract under
which a series of progressively
larger rockets has been built
and fired was signed only II
months ago.
This was our fifth large fir
ing, and two bigger ones are on
the way" DR.. Roberts said.
This development program has
been extremely unusual. 1t has
a 100 per cent untarnished rec
ord. There has not been one
single test where we have had
to make even one qualifying
statement about its success"
The 100-incher was part of a
general Air Force build-up to
the solid fueled component of
Titan III. This rocket, planned
as the booster for the Air
Forces space-airplane "Dyna-
Soar" will combine liquid and
solid rockets but will get away
from the non-storable systems
involving refrigerated fuels on
which NASA is still placing
most of its money.
The Defense Department an
nounced yesterday the award
of a 1913 million contract to
the Martini Marietta Corp. for
initial design studies for Titan
III. AS presently visualized
this would be an advanced YER
sion of the Titan, as Titan II.
with solid-fuel boosters at
tached to it sides.
The two solid rockets, con-
stituting the first stage, would
develop about 90 million
pounds of thrust, or roughly
half again as much as the
liquid-fuel Saturn CT now be-
ing built by the Wernher Won
Braun team at Huntsville, Ala.
DR.. Roberts was asked how
long it would take to jump from
l00-inchers like today's to the
120-inchers needed for Titan
Ill He said that as far as his
company is concerned, it prob
ably would take two years to
get into production. The con-
trolling item in this time sched-
ule would be the readiness of
a new plant near Miami, Fla,
where 100 = inchers would be
built if Aerojet gets the nod.
If this schedule could be met,
Titan III could be ready to go
by the end of 1864. Nothing of
comparable weight-lifting ca
pacity in NASA's stable would
be fully ready by then, accord
ing to present indications.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla,
Feb. 1.-THE highly successful
firing of a record-Sized solid
fuel rocket in California today
raised the prospect of a revival
of the controversy over whether
liquid or solid-fueled boosters
should be used for heavy space
work.
Today's test was of a 119-ton
monster, 100 inches in diane
ter, and SO feet long. 1t devel-
oped 100000 pounds of thrust
for SO seconds on test stand
at Sacramento, Calf, in what
was described as a 100 per
cent, unqualified success"
After the firing President
Dan A. Kimball of the Aerojet-
General Corp, said in a tele-
phone interview that he hoped
the test would generate a change
of heart at the National Aero
nautics and Space Admins
tration.
The possibility of a hard con-
gressional look at the big boost
.er situation was raised by the
firing. Chairman Miller of the
House Space Committee al
ready has made known his in
'terest in solid-fueled rockets for
heavy space work.
Representative King, Demo-
crat of Utah, is the most vocif-
erous proponent of solids on the
Space Committee. He is virtu-
ally certain to push NASA Off
Gals for an explanation of a
showdown in the solid booster
development program when
that agency comes before the
committee soon to explain its
plans for fiscal 1868.
NASA, its councils dominat-
ed by liquid-fuel rocket en-
thusiasts, was given the job
last May of getting men to the
moon in the 1960s.
President Kennedy farmed
out parallel development eff
forts on solid and liquid rockets
to the Air Force and NASA re-
spectively, but gave NASA the
purse strings for both.
When the fiscal 1868 space
budget was made public in
January, super boosters of h e
liquid type received heavy
funding increases. Solid super
rockets were put on relatively
slim rations.
Dryden's Comment
Asked why, Deputy Space
Administrator Hugh L. Dryden
said NASA did not believe SOL
ids could be developed in the
time period they would be
needed.
Mr.. Kimball, a former Secre-
tary of the Navy hazarded the
guess that NASA has some solid
rocket money it isn't talking
about. Sometimes you have to
outguess these people," he said.
Mr.. Kimball indicated that
demonstrating the feasibility of
big rockets might force NASA
to take a look at even bigger
ones.
He said the test showed that

Scientists Discover
Missing Bit of Matter

NEW YORK. Mar. is (AP)
- American and European
scientists have announced dis

It's so elusive it lives only

Physicists had predicted it's

through aid of the worlds two

machines.
This bit Of matter is the anti
Xi-minus, one of the last pre-
dicted anti-particles of matter.
In a practical way, the dis
covery means nothing yet.
But it is a step in filling in
the puzzling picture of a strange

which physicists find in or
coming from the nuclei Of
atoms.
Such particles are detected
