"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.

The program on Tuesday September 9 at 8:30 PM will be our annual session for NJAG members to report on their astronomy adventures this year.

Monthly meetings are held at Montclair State University, in the Center for Environmental and Life Sciences or CELS Building, Room 110.
