letter from Thomas Gold to Dr John Naugle, Associate Administrator, Space Science and Applications, Code S, NASA Headquarters, Washington DC Sending him a text of a letter to Senator Mondale, so that he has a full and complete version. He is doing this because he is very concerned about the public reaction to the space program as now planned. In the course of all this he finds that he has an opportunity of augmenting the interest, both in the Senate and through the news media, among the public in the areas of instrumented research and applications. He is using this opportunity to the maximum extent. 11 June 1971
