Gestern hatte ich den Tumblr-Ableger von Paelo-Future verlinkt, heute das Mutterschiff: Matt Novak hat zwei tolle Illustrationen aus dem Buch "First Men to the Moon" von 1960 gepostet, in dem Wernher von Braun neun Jahre vor der ersten Mondlandung die Geschichte des fiktiven Astronauten John Mason und dessen Reise zum Mond erzählt:
"In the book we read of the training and technical expertise necessary for a journey into space, accompanied by amazing illustrations and diagrams by Fred Freeman. As one of my favorite pre-Apollo books of space retro-futurism I can't recommend this book highly enough. With hard to find retrofuture books like these I sometimes wonder if there might be a market for them if a publisher were to reissue them ..." First Men to the Moon (1960)
