Bored, tired of gossip, quarrel some with your family or neigh bors, life lacking in interest, then read The Exploration of Space, a book on Astronautics, the science of space-travel, by' Arthur C. Clarke, chairman of the British Interplanetary Society. This lit tle book of 195 pages tells the "why” and the “how” of astronau tics without going into many scien tific details. The author says that any intelligent laynnan can follow what is herein written. Clark shows by designs and ex planation what a spaceship would look like, predicts what we may txpeet to find on other planets and .vhat we will do when we ge: here. All speculations are based m facts or at least on probabili ;ies. Furthermore, Clarke im presses the reader as being honest with himself and with his readers. Te claims originality for very few pf the ideas he presents, most >f them having been thrashed out n the British Interplanetary so :iety during the past fifteen years. Fie gives credit for the beginning pf interest in other planets, go ng as far back as Pythagoras in :he 6th century, B. C. Coming lown nearer our day, he includes Kepler, Bishops Godwin and Wil dns, Cyrano de Bergerac and Vol taire for their wise speculations, predictions, and anticipations. Up to the 19th century, much was known about the difficulties put little on how to overcome hem. Within this century, stories ibout space-travel became more common and more scientific. Jules kerne’s story, FVom the Earth to the Moon, a book that interested so nany teenagars, is based on sound scientific principles. So Clarke de dares. Everyone who read Verne should read The Exploration of Space. deas in his book must be regarded is possible solutions to the prob lems of the “how” of space-flight. When we sum up what is known now scientifically and set it beside what was not known in 1900, we must be optimistic about the pro babilities of the future. Clarke nelieves that the “enterprise, skill, and resolution that have made our modern world are sufficient to achieve all’ that is described in his book. Interested in space-flight or no, everyone who reads should read the last chapter of The Explora tion of Space. Here the author stimulates thinking through such simple language that a teenager can read and understand. “De sire to see the planets is only an extension of the desire to see what is over the next hill. The mind interested in nothing beyond its town or village stagnates. The rocket threatens to destroy civili zation. To use it for exploration is to engender healthy curiosity. We must evolve towards a world outlook. The conquest of space will accelerate that evolution.” No matter what the reader gets out of the chapters dealing with scientific principle, he will enjoy the last chapter of The Explora tion of Space, hugely, for the chal lenge to his thinking.
