Moon Shot and Arms Parade Mark Soviet Anniversary
The Soviet Union marked the 20th anniversary of V E Day with Lunik 5, a 3254 pound moon mission, and a Red Square parade displaying new missiles and tanks. Tass said Lunik 5 launched from an early orbiting rocket and will gather scientific data on a 250000 mile journey. U S observers questioned solid fuel claims while noting similarities to liquid fueled rockets. Marshal Zhukov appeared, Eisenhower urged Zhukov’s rehabilitation, and Western ambassadors boycotted parts of the event over a Pravda critique of NATO. The peace appeal urged general disarmament and halted U S aggression in Viet Nam with a call to end colonial wars.
