This is also after the Sputniks were launched, because the Explorer 1 was our first satellite in space.<br /><br />When the Vanguard blew up on the launchpad in Dec., 1957, von Braun was allowed to work on his Redstone rockets and the women were used to calculate trajectories. NASA wasn't created until Oct., 1958. Thanks for setting me straight.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-755386591543783762017-06-18T17:38:53.143-04:002017-06-18T17:38:53.143-04:00OOh liking the journal covers and your dimensional...OOh liking the journal covers and your dimensional elements. How are you feeling? Vintage Bazaar is next weekend. I can only go on Sunday, have to gallery host Saturday and be available if any families show up for our free art day.

I appreciate their beauty, but I admit, I never create my cover until the book is finished. If I do, I have a tendency to muck it up. You have courage, especially with the fish.<br /><br />Of course, I really like the stars/nighttime/space concept, too. It fits right in with what I'm sharing at the Cosmosphere. BTW, to my knowledge, there were no women working in space exploration in the late 1940s, early 1950s. From what I gathered at the museum, the "human computers" were first employed to track trajectories for Explorer I, which happened only after NASA was created. At the moment, we are talking about the V-2 being modified by both the U.S. and the Soviets. The space race has barely begun, and yes, two of the three embarrassments begin with Sputniks I and II. Thanks for asking.<br /><br />I hope you enjoyed your time at school. I'm sure you are glad that the sub will finish out the semester/quarter for you.

I can't decide my favorite (though I lean toward the fish). They just feel like summer and make me smile!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-44587377629441318802017-06-17T09:46:43.292-04:002017-06-17T09:46:43.292-04:00Both and so good.
