Saturn CAPE CANAVERAL (UPI) America s Saturn super rocket the vehicle on which the United States is pinning its hopes in the race to the moon thund ered 65 miles into space Wednesday and created the highest ice cloud know to man by dumping 95-tons of water in the heavens. Famed space scientist Dr. Wernher von iBraun,. who once saved the Saturn from a financial death on the drawing boards called the brief flight "a full success" and predicted the rocket will orbit a proto type of the U. S. Apollo lunar landing capsule within two years. The United States followed up the dramatic Saturn flight by firing an advanced model Polaris missile from a nuclear submarine, the U.S.S. Sam Houston, from beneath the ocean's surface off Florida's east coast to a target 1,50 miles away Wednesday. Cancel Second Shot The Polaris firing, which the Defense Department tried in vain to kep secret, was the first of a series scheduled for the Sam Houston and her sister sub, the U S. S. Thomas Edison. A planned second lauching from the Sam Houston Wednesday was can celled. . But it was the second successful flight of the mammoth Saturn in as many tries. The Saturn flight represented a new Zenith in U.S. rocketry and opened a little wider the doorway to the day when man will be able to send teams of men and tons of machinery to the moon. 1 The Saturn, as tall as a 10-story building, is a massive cluster of eight engines. It is believed to be the largest rocket in the world significantly big ger than the rockets that put Russian cosmonauts Puri Gar gar in and Gherman Titov into orbit. 4 The Saturn is certainly the most complex space launcher ever built in the free world.
