"Professor Goddard does not know the relation between action and reaction and the need to have something better than a vacuum against which to react. He seems to lack the basic knowledge ladled out daily in high schools."
--1921 New York Times editorial about Robert Goddard's revolutionary rocket work.

"Correction: It is now definitely established that a rocket can function in a vacuum. The 'Times' regrets the error."
NY Times, July 1969.

We are planning to resume our Thursday night Telescope Nights on April 7 at 8 pm. Weather permitting telescopes will be set up in front of the Center for Environmental and Life Sciences or "CELS" Building from 8 to 9 pm for the public to view the wonders of the night sky. Raindate is April 14. Free.

Note: Our telescopes cannot see through clouds! Public Telescope Night will be cancelled if the weather is cloudy, raining or very windy (It is “clear” if you can see the moon or ten stars clearly.)
