Pages THE KEY WEST CITIZEN —Tussdey, September 8, 1959 ee ee Tp Key Mest Citizen at Key West, Florida, as Second Class Matier Dr. Werner von Braun, the designer of the German V-2 rocket which bombed London in the last stages of World War Il, said recently rockets can be shot into the satellite orbit through means and methods which have been thoroughly tested and tried in the United States. 4 The German scientist, now in the service of the United ttates, was more optimistic than fellow-scientists who al- #o read papers at the Astronautical Congress in Zurich, Switaerland, In commenting on his optimistic approach, Dh. von! Braun noted that fellow-German scientists at Peene-| munde (the German rocket development center during! World War I), had been pessimistic when shown the prototype of the V-2 rocket bomb. Dr. von Braun recalled that many of these scientists predicted the V-2 would not} succeed, aithough it perfarmed up to all expectations. Dr. von Braun says the method of computing stresses in rockets is so tried and true that new machines can be} designed “without fear of failure.” He added that if a! careful course was followed, it would require only a few years for the United States to construct a rocket and sta- tion capable of reaching the satellite orbit. The famous scientist was even more specific and, that fifteen years of proper development would not only a manned satellite rocket, but a manned space station. Whether or not the builder of the famed V-2 is correct, his observations are worthy of con- sideration. Evidently, Dr. von Braun fears that progress i fumble the ball in this field. The noted scientist's words are significant because of his success in building the V-2, rocket during World War II, when the pessimists, and) the more conservative forecasters, predicted it could not be done., Two is often a crowd..
