Abstract

Great adventures which lead to a decisive step in human evolution are not a privilege of the past. Perhaps the greatest step in our recorded history is happening right now: We are witnessing how man reaches out beyond his native planet to set foot on his neighbors in space, the moon, Mars, perhaps Venus and the moons of Jupiter. Again, the spirit of adventure, the almost mystical desire to take a bold new step into the unknown has been the prime mover behind the development of space flight.
