EARTH is in space and it is no more extraordinary for man to use space to look down on Earth, as for centuries he has used Earth to scan the stars. Contrary to popular belief, man took to space and utilised it just as soon as he was given the means. When did the space age begin? Was it the Balloon Post of 1870, or the V2 rockets of 1944 or, Sputnik? Whatever, just as soon as man found he could employ energy to defy gravity, he saw the potential for its use in war — and a good thing too. Where would all who read this be if RAF bravery coupled with space technology had not been in being in 1940?
