Nancy Classics by Ernie Bushmiller for March 28, 2020

You’re teacher might pull a Ralph Kramden, “Bam, zoom, to the moon Nancy!”

Now I’m wondering. Was there ever any discussion of such an approach in 1950?

Today, tens of thousands from all over the globe have applied to join the crew of a proposed one-way voyage to Mars.

19 years from now, a famous spaceman will say “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.

and right after you make that suggestion, be prepared to spend some time in the principal’s office explaining why you made said suggestion…

I’m still a tad disappointed that spacecraft didn’t evolve into Willy Ley designs. They were nifty!

“Science Mag.” The official publication of “Science Museum” (as seen in “Dick Tracy” a few years back).

Looking at that space blimp with broken landing gear, I’m not surprised Russia was the first to put a man in space.

They had those back then?

OY! Nancy! That will earn you detention after class!

Look at the old early 50’s magazines like Popular Science and they have some interesting (and amusing) articles about plans for space travel.

Nancy wants to give her teacher this?

I understand.

Subtle, Nancy.
