European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - November 14, 1958, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Friday november 14, 1958 the stars and stripes Page need for rocket powered Tow trucks described scientist forecasts traffic problem in space san Antonio Tex. Up the time is coming a scientist says when space traffic will be so heavy that it will be necessary to have fleets of rocket powered Tow trucks ready to dash to the Rescue of astronauts i trouble Between Earth and the planets. Or. Norman v. Petersen of Lockheed aircraft corp. Said there will be eventual need for Rescue and retrieve vehicles to per form emergency missions assuring Crew survival from malfunctioning or isolated satellite and space  far Man has been unable to blast even a few pounds of inanimate matter As far As the Moon a next door neighbor Only about 238,000 Miles away. But that has t prevented Petersen and other space experts from looking ahead o the hazards of inter planetary travel. They presented their ideas Complete with graphs and complicated equations on How to make space reasonably Safe at the Sec Ond International symposium on space physics and  Force col Paul a. Campbell began the session on Rescue in space with the declaration that this being an ethical democracy a Man or a Crew or an expedition will not be sent into space by our nation until there is a reasonable Chance of a Safe journey and of Safe recovery in Case of  m. Mayo chief safety research Engineer of the Douglas aircraft co., developed the Homo with the statement the space traveller who fails to survive the journey cannot realize adequately his desire for adventure and  All agreed that though spare definitely is hostile something can be done in improve Man s chances of living to Tell the tale of his travels , appears that survival Odds can to raised to acceptable values Mayo said. Petersen probed deeply into the possible misadventures astronauts might get. Into in space and into the mathematical possibilities of redeeming them. Rescuing a stalled spacecraft in t like sending a Tow truck to pull a car that has run out of Gas. You have to figure such things As orbits velocities and trajectories. In space matters you can depend upon one fundamental equation a tiny error at the outset equals one big miss. Among things that could happen to a spaceship Peterson listed accidents in land ing on the Moon planets or asteroids and loss of Power causing is ailing in he empty Gulf of solar space. Petersen thinks he worst traffic a Ards will prevail in satellite systems500 to 100, 000 Miles from the Earth. Satellites in that Region would include weather monitors communications Craft repair refuelling and Assembly platforms and staging bases for interplanetary flights.
