About Moon and About Rocket (1966)

 

 

 This is actually the second edition of this 1964 Russian book that I have already blogged about here:

So I will try to post images from this book that you may not have seen before.

 

 

I like the abstract quality of these drawings. 

 

This has a great deal of resemblance to the Apollo Command module configuration.

 

Finally a reminder that at the time it was still a race to the moon.
