...satellites, ELINT's sensors can easily detect large explosions, even at great distances, from the electromagnetic disturbances that they cause in the atmosphere. If added proof of the Soviet troubles is needed, the Russians themselves have indirectly provided it. The chief of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, Mstislav Keldysh, last month unexpectedly announced that the Russian effort to land men on the moon had been indefinitely delayed...
What looms beyond the moon? Russian space efforts, says Mstislav V. Keldysh, president of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, are already focused on "the setting up of interplanetary stations and the reaching of other planets." By contrast, the moon now seems to be the end of the line to many U.S. space scientists. Hamstrung by cutbacks in appropriations, laboratories and space installations across the country have been laying off technicians, engineers and scientists by the thousands. More important, they have been forced to suspend most planning for interplanetary missions. "There is no question that things will be bleak...
Serious Question. Somewhat surprisingly, Mstislav V. Keldysh, president of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, had little to say about the Soviet space spectacular at a press conference that took place while the docking was achieved. Instead, he commented on suggestions by the U.S., which has already performed manned dockings and plans to trigger off the maiden launching of giant Saturn 5 this week, that the two countries cooperate. "This is a very serious question," Keldysh said. "We have received no invitation, but I think this could be discussed...
...addition to the mellow overture, Keldysh insisted that "there will be no manned launchings before the holidays." But Western space officials were keenly aware that Cosmos 186 had probably solved the soft-landing problems that turned Soyuz 1 into a funeral pyre. And noting that the U.S.S.R. has reportedly asked India for permission to land a manned capsule on its territory in the future, they speculated at week's end that the eventual result of last week's rendezvous will be a circumlunar mission destined to end with a landing in-or near-India...
...years of drastic temperature changes and bombardment by meteors and solar particles. Inhospitable as it is, such a surface could probably bear the weight of both heavy space vehicles and men. The major obstacle remaining before man can fly to the moon, concluded Soviet Academy of Sciences President Mstislav Keldysh, "is the problem of returning a cosmonaut to earth. I think it is easier to solve the problem of a relatively short stay on the moon than to solve the problem of recovery...
