[Alex Michael Bonnici]

Hello Gang,
              Here is a link to a very interesting article entitled "1st floor: haberdashery, curtains. 35,780th floor: satellite in space" by Arthur C. Clarke for The Times dated September 24th, 2005. One intersting fact that emerged in this article was Wernher von Braun used Clarke's The Exploration of Space (1952) to convince President Kennedy that it was possible to go to the Moon.

Enjoy,


Alex
