Air Force plans lunar rocket shots in August amid date dispute
Lt. Gen. S. E. Anderson said the Air Force will try to fire its first rocket toward the moon in August with three shots targeted for August, September and October. ARPA chief Roy W. Johnson contested dates, saying no final decision exists. Anderson claimed he spoke of planning dates and noted a noninstrumented three-stage Thor missile would power the probe.
