...crashes to destruction. Even such fleeting views should tell much more about the moon's mysterious surface than is now known. Another moon explorer under development by JPL and Hughes Aircraft is Surveyor, which will try to make a soft landing on the moon, take closeup pictures and transmit them to earth, besides analyzing samples of moon "soil." Later spacecraft will orbit the moon, photographing its topography in detail while mechanical eyes search for safe landing places for the spacecraft of human explorers. Long before men set foot on the moon, instruments will have made many parts...
...children and in males of any age, German measles is a trivial disease-totally different from ordinary measles (rubeola). The elusive virus now isolated cannot be generally used as a readymade vaccine because of the danger that children might transmit the infection to pregnant women. So scientists are trying to make it safe, by killing the virus (as in Salk polio shots) or weakening it (as in Sabin oral vaccine...

...Washington. The first picture to be beamed from the earth station in Maine was a TV camera's view of the American flag waving near the ground tracking facilities, while a sound track carried The Star-Spangled Banner and America the Beautiful. Scientists had expected Telstar to transmit only in the U.S., but they got a bonus. British televiewers, still up at 1 a.m., caught only a wavering picture of the Vice President before the view was lost, but in France the reception was so loud and clear that technicians at Pleumeur-Bodou compared it favorably with the quality...
...closed-circuit television system will transmit the stage activities not only to the public bars and lobbies but also to backstage dressing rooms and the penthouse quarters of the Philharmonic's top managerial brass. For special events, such as children's concerts, a null TV screen will be lowered behind the stage, and when Leonard Bernstein says...
