...Oval Office But in some respects, a presidential candidate must be above the larger human frailties. Some people will always wonder whether Kennedy, who at best bent and broke under extreme pressure, can stand up to the rigors of the Oval Office. Would his judgment, like his brother's, remain unimpaired through the tension of a Cuban missile crisis? "Can we really trust him if the Russians come over the ice cap?" asked one Washington analyst last week. "Can he make the kind of split-second decisions the astronauts had to make in their landing on the moon? If this...

Article XII says that all stations on the moon must remain open to inspection by other states on a reciprocal basis. This might mean that if Russia's Luna 15 had landed with cosmonauts aboard, they would have had the right to look over Eagle. On the other hand, the U.S. could have refused entry by citing the treaty's provision that such inspection must be requested in advance, and must not interfere with normal space operations...
