ROCKET The Air Force, today cleared up a point of confus in the news about the moon rocket. Which scored a triumph - in getting to a distance of seventy-nine thousand miles from this earth. Then comin g back - to burn up in the atm,sphere. an In earl y /report, , the statement was - that the speeding Pioneer had escaped from the earth's gravitation. But how could that be - since it was gravity that caused the Pioneer to come falling back? Today, Major General Donald Yates, Commander of the Air Force Missile Test Center at Cape Canaveral said - it was a case of "inaccurate" wording. The announcement in question - technically incorrect. The General pointing out - that you would~•t expect a moon rocket ever to get out of the earth 1 s gravitational field. Because the moon, itself is a satellite - held by the · earth's gravitational force. recltet will be eon4'rellea f•e• ,i.e ground= 1:n gN&iGII aae11ee A'l'CIUC Early this morning, there was a blast or flame over the Nevada deaert.
