Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
Is there any way to read those two articles?
ReplyDeleteLook at the fleet of ships!
Tankers for refueling the orbiter and lander probably,
with some to soft-land the habitat and supplies.
(Don't land until the 'return to orbit fuel' tanker soft-lands!!!)
What would have had to happen on earth for THAT future to come to pass?
No Korean War? No Cold War? No Soviet Union?
or
A radio message from Mars?

You'll need a cbr reader. It's free.
On the Mac I use FFView.
For Windows, there's Comical.
Oh.... the radio show.
Later maybe.
For those interested, someone is trying to make a movie based on the premise that history actually followed the path outlined in Colliers. The website can be found at http://manconquersspace.com/, Pretty nice, though it has been a work in progress for years.
ReplyDeleteChristopher...
ReplyDeleteI've seen some of the clips.
A pacifist Soviet Union, recovering from WWII
=
60 years of space exploration?
Thanks for nothing Stalin!
I want to know how my town can avoid a recession.
ReplyDeleteAfter my grandfather died I found tons of old Colliers in his basement. Great articles on how to survive the coming war with the Reds.
Bryan... I suppose the magazine are long gone...?
ReplyDeleteJay, that was my thought too. If he has the space issues, that's quite a find. might even be very valuable.
ReplyDeleteIf I didn't still have them, I wouldn't know how to survive the coming war with the Reds. They're all pretty moldy from the basement so I don't think the value is that high. I've been thinking of scanning them and making them publicly available but I'm a lazy, lazy man.
