No Count-Downs Used
In Early Rocket Firing
Roswell, N. M. -lUPD- The
intricate count -down in
launching modern missiles
was unheard of on New Year's
eve of 1930 when Dr. Robert
H. Goddard fired a missle
in his first success.
It went up less than a mile
but helped earn for the scien
tist recognition as the father
of modern rocketry.
Charles W. Mansur, now an
aerospace engineer for the
U.S. Army at White Sands
Missile Range, N.M., was an
assistant to Goddard.
"There was no such thing
as a count down in those
days," Mansur said. "When
we were ready to fire, we
fired!"
During firings-, there was
an observation point about 5b
feet from the launching tow
er wi.cre they really got a
"close" look at the launching
behind a cellar door dugout,
Mansur said.
For two years, Goddard and
four assistants developed, and
well. They worked in a shop
35 by 50 feet located about
four miles north of the city.
Their 60-foot launching
tower was put up seven miles
away at Eden valley.
Enthusiastic
"We were really enthus
iastic and the fact that we
had to start from scratch even
to helping build our own ma
chine shop did not dampen
our spirits a bit," Mansur
said in an interview in his
modern laboratory at White
Sands.
Mansur first met Goddard,
who died in 1945, at Wor
cester, Mass. In the early
1920s Mansur attended a
grammar school there, across
the street from Clark univer
sity, where Goddard was
head of the sciences dept
artment. While In high school, Man
sur worked as a laboratory
assistant at the university
under Goddard. And in 1929
Mansur went to work full
time for Goddard, whose
work in experimental rock
ety dated back to the begin
ning of the century.
"We tried to launch rockets
in Massachusetts: but the pub
lic protested, Mansur re
called. But the publicity aroused
the attention of Col. Charles
E. Llndberk, who became in
terested In Goddard's work,
for his solo flight over the
Atlantic Ocean, helped ob

Clark university gave God
dard a sabattical leave and
loaned machine tools and
other equipment to his re
search. Goddard selected Ros
well as the Ideal location for
his work because f the cli
mate and Isolation.
The experiments at Ros
well lasted about two years.
At the depth of the depression,
funds ran out and Goddard
returned to leaching in Wor
cester, able to devote only
spare hours to his rockets.
Mansur continued to work
part-time In the laboratories
at Clark.
In 1934 Goddard called
Mansur to offer a full time
Job with more experiments In
New Mexico. This time Ivtree
of the original crew returned
to Roswell.
In 1940, the U.S. Army ask

corporation set up a missile

Mansur, reflecting on the
progress of rocketry during
his career, said "it is unbe
lievable that the Federal avi
ation agency has had to is
sue regulations about rockets
fired by amateur rocket clubs
as their rockets may shoot
down aircraft."
"Some can reach altitudes
of five miles," he said. "Why,
