Rocket to the Moon
Now Actually Possible
New York U A rocket icientist said today that it is now
possible to build and send a man-made moon into space where
it would travel around the earth at a distance of 470 miles.
Furthermore, according to
Willy Ley in a report to the
American Rocket society, sci
ence has Ihe knowledge to pro
duce a "moon messenger," that
is, a rocket that will reach the
moon 235W00 miles from earth.
Ley, one of the earliest rocket
scientists and who came here
from Germany in 1935. said that
in recent V-2 rocket experi
ments in New Mexico man al
ready had penetrated space with
a missile.

Phil Schnell
Firm Expands
Phil Schnell of Salem an
nounces that he has purchased
Parker Food Sales in Portland,
wholesale distributor located at
1814 NE Sixth avenue. He will
change the name to Phil Schnell
company. '
The firm will continue as the
franchised dealer in Durkee's
packaged foods, which is its
principal line. For the last five
years Schnell has been Durkee
distributor in Salem and vicin
ity in the local firm of Parrish
Food Distributors. The name of
the latter also will be changed
to Phil Schnell company, and
his son, Roger Schnell, will ma
nage the Salem operation. A
fleet of 12 trucks will be used
by the two operations.
Before he went into the food
business Schnell was for 23
years with Union Oil company
in several capacities. At various
times he was district manager
in Vancouver, Seattle, Tacoma
and Spokane.
In that test, a WAC corporal
rocket was attached to the V-2
niissile and was released when
the V-2 spent its fuel. The WAC
continued on to 250 miles alti
tude "which to all intents and
purposes is the outermost limit
of the atmosphere. Ley said
The experiment showed, ac
cording to Ley, that only a third
step or another rocket to go,
off when the second spends its ,
fuel is now needed to place an j
artificial satellite in an orbit at
470 miles above sea level. It
would travel around the world .
at 4.6 miles per second, making
the circuit in one hour and 45
minutes, he said.
The satellite would continue
its circling indefinitely, and
Ley said the problem would be
"getting it down." Under his
plan the satellite would carry
200 pounds of instruments
which would make observations
and relay them to ground crews.
The "moon," he estimated.
would weigh 237,000 pounds, or
119 short tons, at take-off, but
would lose much of the weight
as its fuel was spent on the way
up.
The rocket to the moon, he
said, has been assured by the
development of using burning
hydrogen in a rocket motor.
Such motor power can permit
the rocket to travel at 15,000
miles an hour fast enough to
counteract the pull of the earth's
gravity. He said it has been
shown that atomic energy is not
necessary for space rockets.
The moon messenger, he said,
would be unmanned and would
leave a mark on the face of the
moon, not by explosion or flash
light powder, but the scattering
of a white powder like glass
which would make a permanent
mark.
With all the new develop
ments, Ley said that science
does not "need any new basic
inventions or discoveries either
for establishing an orbital rocket
and a moon messenger."
It Is a problem of engineering
development, patient work and
cash to finance the program, he
said.
