Karl D Dodenhoff posted on ProjectApollo a note about his web site that has some material from the old 60's "Science Program".

I copied it below with the links to his web site.

Might bring back memories, at least it did for a number of folks on the ProjectAollo Yahoo group. http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ProjectApollo/

Some of you have ideas for taking us to the Moon and Mars in graphic, story telling ways. It isn't all that easy.

I copied links to one group that has been working on a project since 2001.

You might like to take a look at the 3D renderings found at DEEPCOLD, a website telling about the COLD WAR that occupied the second half of the 20th Century.

Well so much for looking back.

And for the future, hmmm, funding, funding, funding, or lack thereof.

Too bad we can't apply all the money spent by politicians on negative campaign ads to getting us up, up, and away.

A couple of million to each of you that have space projects on hold would be nice.

Here is hoping you have more to write about and projects we can all look at.

Thanks for looking up with me.

1a. Old and new web site updates

A recent post in another group inspired me to do something I've been meaning to do for a long time. I just re-posted a web page that was on my old site. It deals with the old 60's "Science Program", which was a subscription service you signed up for at a staggering cost of 10 cents. You would then receive the Revell 1/96 scale Apollo CSM/LM kit with the lunar base at no extra cost, followed by a series of small paperback books on various science topics, many of which were related to space exploration. The web page features large scans of some of the ads that were seen in Boys Life magazine for the program, as well as scans of the covers of many of the books. You can see it here:

I consider this to be a real treat for us Boomers!

Also, I have nearly completed a new page on Apollo Art, which has a dozen scans of some of my favorite Apollo art work, including a series from National Geographic magazine. You can check it out here:

This one is still under construction but about 90% complete.

MAN CONQUOERS SPACE - THE CONQUEST OF THE MOON AND MARS

http://manconquersspace.com/MCSEnter.html
INTRODUCTION

http://manconquersspace.com/MCSPg3.html
THE STORY
Man Conquers Space is now designed as a theatrically released feature film, chronicling the major space exploration and exploitation events of the 20th and early 21st century in an alternative history timeline.

The release date of Man Conquers Space is yet to be announced.

MCS: UPDATES

Milestone
10 Jul 2006
After much writing, rewriting, tweaking, adjusting and rethinking, the "MCS Screenplay" is done. Here's the thing: the MCS screenplay has in one form or another been around for quite some time now. The background structure, characters, circumstances and story arcs were all formulated over the space of eighteen months starting in 2001. The problem has been all that work is unrecognisable to most film executives and financial support individuals and institutions. With the MCS production budget estimated to be where it is now, the film's executive producers have insisted on having a screenplay in conventional form to use to approach the various financiers they wish to approach, hence the need to go back and write down everything in conventional form.

The butterfly has finally been hammered to the wall. It won't fly any more but it can now be closely inspected by others...

DEEPCOLD - SECRETS OF THE COLD WAR IN SPACE: 1959 - 1969

http://www.deepcold.com/deepcold/INTRO_MAIN.HTML
For most of the second half of the 20th century, a cold war raged between the world's two superpowers. While battles were never fought on either country's land, plans were made to take the war into the high frontier of outer space.

>From 1950 to 1980 the space race defined the furthest limits of the Coldwar.
The short span of years from 1959 to 1969 saw the most significant advances in manned space technology and politics. Today, the International Space Station is the living legacy of the peaceful outcome of those days.

Each of the images shown in Deep Cold is a rendering of a 3d computer model.
I built these models over the last few years using a basic set of 3d software on a range of different Macs.

It took a while to figure out what worked and what didn't, but I have come to rely on the software and steps shown here. I try to keep up with the latest versions of the software, but the fact is there is nothing shown here which couldn't be done on earlier versions.
