...American documentaries seem to imply a common basic premise. The choice of "real" subject matter, the use of television programs and political commentary, the inclusion of footage which could not have been preplanned (the Tokyo Olympic Games for example), and the apparently random way Marker orders his material suggest the same realities as do the Americans...
These findings are beginning to suggest that the moon may well prove to be far more like the earth than many scientists had imagined. Study of the patterns of seismic events, NASA geologists say, seems to indicate that the moon, like the earth, may be a multilayered body with a basaltic crust perhaps twelve miles thick (v. a maximum of 25 miles on earth), and a hot interior core. Apollo's preliminary findings are also persuading some distinguished scientists to consider re-examining their lunar theories. Among them is Nobel Chemistry Laureate Harold C. Urey, long a proponent...
...characteristics that seemed fascinatingly similar to those of earth. The red planet turned out to have an atmosphere, albeit an extremely thin one. The tilt of its axis (about 24°) is approximately the same as the earth's, thus creating seasonal changes. Its huge white polar caps suggest the presence of ice, and therefore water-a prerequisite for life as human beings know it. It also has large dark areas that grow, like earthly vegetation, in spring and recede in autumn...
...however, two British psychiatrists who re-examined George's medical records in the light of new medical knowledge are proposing a radically different interpretation. Drs. Ida Macalpine and Richard Hunter, her son, suggest in the British Medical Journal that George III suffered from porphyria, a rare hereditary metabolic disorder that can lead to severe mental disturbances...
Babel was not merely compelled to rewrite a story dozens of times, as the Russian authors suggest. He seems to have been incapable of writing anything that did not follow the unique lines of his own ironical and conflicting character. For all their straightforward drama and excitement, the Red Cavalry stories rest on the contradiction between professional bloodletting and revolutionary ideals...
