This is the first of a series of nostalgic re-posts from the same date, today, every year on the blog since we started way back in September 2008.
Some things we knew. Many things we didn't. Some friends have gone. New friends have come. We hope all of them have prospered.
Enjoy!

Darth has sent me this:
Hey Woodsy, attached are two pics from my Dyna-Soar book of something very similar to what Wotan has been showing.
One, above, is an animated mock-up of a winged reentry vehicle built by Martin and put on display at the New Worlds Fair in New York in 1964.
It looks to be half way between the X-20 and the X-24. Apparently it was seen to fly back and forth docking with the cylindrical space station.
The other pic, below, is a mock-up proposed by Goodyear for an inflatable re-entry vehicle.
BTW did you get the pics I sent to you several weeks ago of the Hover Moon car? It looked exactly like a Sword toy.
Regards, Rob
