Venus Space Shots
Postponed for Best
Position of Planet
WASHINGTON, (ff) — For the
time being, the United States has
postponed three important space
shots — two probes aimed at Ve
nus and an' earth satellite to
swing as high as 30,000 miles.
Engineering difficulties in both
the payload and boost vehicle
system was the only reason given
Friday for the delay by the Na
tional Aeronautics and Space Ad
ministration.
The probes at cloud-shrouded
Venus had been set for June. Now
they’ll have to wait at least 18
months, because the planet swings
away from earth and won’t be in
a good position again until mid
January, 1961.
One of the Venus probes was in
tended to go near the planet and
on past it. The other was to be
an attempt to put an earthling
moon in orbit around the sister
planet. Venus has no natural
moons of its own.
The high satellite experiment
was to try to put a moonlet into
a very long, flat orbit. At its high
point it wTould have been 30,000
miles away from earth, but would
have swung back to within 250
miles of earth on each trip.
This shot was set for April and
already had been postponed at
least twice.
Former Alaska Bush Pilot
Lost on Montana Flight
DILLON, Mont., Iff) — Ground
and air search for a light plane,
piloted by a former Alaskan bush
pilot, entered its second day Sat
urday, hampered by clouds hang
ing low over the mountains of
western Montana and eastern
Idaho.
The pilot, believed alone in a
maroon and white Cessna 182, was
- identified as George H. Curlanz,
now of Denver. He is employed by
Jack Daniels Inc., a flying service
at Longmont, Colo.
Curlanz, who has about 3,000
hours in the air, took off from
Butte, Mont., early Friday. He
checked by radio with the Dillon
airport at 7:31 a.m., saying he
was headed for Idaho Falls, Ida- -
ho, less than an hour’s flying
time awy.
