ANZinSpace Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Just received this Space Chart printed and published in Australia by the Salvation Army Printing Department. Based on the fact that it mentions Sputnik II but doesn't mention Yuri Gagarin or any other astronaut it was most likely made between 1957 and 1960. Also based on the fact that the Earth shown in the orbits side of the chart has Australia front and centre and that it talks about in the near future spaceship will be launched 'somewhere north of Woomera' it was something written here rather than a reprint of an American or British chart. The pictures in it however are definintely from books by Werner von Braun and Willy Ley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
