TitleLetter from Thomas Gold to Dr Lewis M Branscomb, JILA, Boulder, Colorado
Date29 November 1966
DescriptionConcerning his views on priorities for the Space Science Panel e.g. says that 'I am very concerned that the entire space science section of NASA is weak, ineffective and unimaginative, and that this tends to aggravate the imbalance which other considerations would have enforced in any case between manned and unmanned work'; 'I am very unhappy about Apollo science and in particular the absence of any sound planning for photography'; 'The lunar receiving lab[oratory] is a fantastic monstrosity which Mr Parkinson himself could not improve upon'.
