By his own calculations, Harris sees the lifetime income of a man graduating now as about three quarters of a million dollars. This means that the the costs of repayment would be less than one per cent of lifetime income, assuming that the student borrows for three years (that is, the four college years sans summers), and the interest rate is kept low. Payment would be spread out from twenty to forty years, with option, of course, to repay as soon...

If it soars just 2,500 miles above earth, it will top all artificial satellites, and its instruments will be snooping in regions unknown to man. A probe that got within 50,000 miles of the moon would be an enormous scientific success. Its instruments could record meteorite density, perhaps reveal whether the moon has an atmosphere. Even more important, it could tell some of the secrets of the source of earth's magnetism, and of the thickness of the radiation...
