SIX MEN SEEK
ROCKET RIDE
TO THE MOON
Paris OP) Six men have asked for
the privilege of riding in the
rocket which may be shot into the
sky for a visit to the moon wttmn
the next vear.
Professor Oberth, creator of the
plan for the rocket, has personally
received three applications and Ro
bert Esnault-Peletier, the astrono
mer, has received the others. Botn
admit that the possibility of a safe
return is exceedingly small.
The first danger lies in the rock
et's going awry before It clears the
earth; the result In that case would
be a crash and certain death. The
second is the possibility of striking
the moon or other hard, opaque
body in the heavens. The third. Is
in descending, in which case Prof.
Oberth has pointed out that the
nrolectlle is sure to be either dent
ed or destroyed In striking the cush
ion of atmosphere which envelops
the earth. Finally, there is the
question of air, although an Amer
ican astronomer has devised a
scheme for supplying oxygen to the
passenger.
If, however, the chosen passen
ger outwits the law of probabilities
and comes safely down to the soil of
France and not the middle of the
.ocean he will become a greater
hero than Lindbergh and will prob
ably have a message for the astron
omers of the world that will add
more to the solution of their proo
lems than a year of patient labor In
an observatory.
Esnault-Peletier stated that only
those will be chosen who have de
pendents and who In addition are
not subject to sea-sickness. Old
sailors or ex-avlators, In his opinion
would be ideal subjects for the ex
periment. One of the difficulties Is
that after leaving tne eartn oenina,
the passenger will lose all sense of
direction, hence, will probably not
be able to say what land be sees, or
touches. This would remain a mys
tery unless the Ingenuity of as
tronomers devises a metned or trac
ing the roefc-t'.- c:v vi i:j tiiy.
A solution-of this problem has
to a certain extent been supplied
by the Germans who now frequent
ly send up unmnaoitea rocKets ip
on altitude of sixty and a hundred
miles equipped in each case with
registering apparatus. Prof. Oberth
has further suggested the creation
of veritable laboratories In space by
means of rockets with facilities for
remaining aloft for some time.
The Dlan of the rocket, wnicn nas
been found feasible and been sig
nalized by the award of the Hirsch,
Ren. prize for the year by the So-
clete Astronomique of France, is
such as to enable It escape not only
the pull of gravitation from tne
earth, but from other planets ana
the sun as well. It will therefore
be able to cruise the heavens free
of danger of being forced down un
less It .goes square Into a reef pro
jecting from the moon.
So far as the plana are now
known the man In tne rocket will
have no means at his disposal for
controlling the course of the proj
ectile. His lob will be to hold on
with both hands and pray that no
diety jealous of this Invasion of nis
domain throws thunderbolts In his
path.
