50 Years of space exploration .. Via Flickr!



I do not think that there is a trip more interesting or exciting than the man's journey to explore space and explore the territory they had mined, which does not see her end!
Although the space is one of the worlds most spectacular and beautiful, it remains an area largely closed to those interested in astronomy and the sciences, so the interest of the U.S. space agency NASA to bring the public of its journey exciting space exploration, the Agency carried out in collaboration with the location of the pictures the famous Flickr collection of photos that describe the history of this journey does not end, and which you choose this group:

Than you see in this picture is Robert Goddard, when he was explaining how the arrival of man to the moon would be possible in one day!
This photo was taken in 1924 and Goddard died in 1945, but his efforts were the cause of payment rights "of the space age," then he deserves the title because of Goddard, "a man of the moon!"
