Vorwort
Der X. Internationale Astronautische Kongreß, eine Jubiläumsveranstaltung der International Astronautical Federation (I.A.F.), wurde in besonders eindrucksvoller Weise in der Woche zwischen dem 30. August und dem 5. September 1 H59 von der British Interplanetary Society in London durchgeführt, wo i:lchon 1951 der zweite dieser Kongresse stattgefunden hatte. Die Vorträge von 195H zeigen den fast unglaublichen Fortschritt dieser acht Jahre, den wohl kaum einer der Teilnehmer jenes historischen Kongresses erwartet hätte, der die Gründung der I.A.F. brachte. Die astronautischen Forscher und Techniker dürfen berechtigte Genugtuung über die vielfache Bestätigung eines großen Teiles ihrer damaligen Gedanken und Projekte empfinden.
Die beiden vorliegenden Berichtsbände enthalten die beim X. I.A.F.-Kongreß gehaltenen Vorträge, soweit deren Manuskripte von den Verfassern vor oder nach dem Kongreß zur Verfügung gestellt wurden. Von fast sämtlichen übrigen Vorträgen liegen wenigstens mehrsprachige Zusammenfassungen vor, außerdem Kurzfassungen von vier Arbeiten, die in den ,.Astronautica Acta" erschienen sind. Der British InterplanetaI'Y Society sei für die Mühe, möglichst alleR Vortragi:ilnaterial zu beschaffen. wärmstens gedankt.
"Vie im Vorjahr wurden die einzelnen Beiträge zum Zweck schnellerer Veröffentlichung nicht in alphabetischer Reihenfolge nach den Namen der Verfasser, Nondern je nach der Fertigstellung der Korrekturen und Abbildungen angeordnet. Dem ersten Band wurden wieder ein thematisch geordnetes Inhaltsverzeichnis und ein alphabetisches Verzeichnis aller Mitarbeiter vorangestellt.
Der Herausgeber spricht den Übersetzern der meisten Zusammenfassungen der einzelnen Artikel ins Französische beziehungsweise Englische, den Herren Professor Ing. BAUDOUIN FRAEI.TS DE VEUBEKE (Liege), Dr. WOLFGANG B. KLEMPERER (Santa Monica, Calif.) und MI'. FREDERICK I. ÜRDWAY, 111 (Washington. D.C.) für ihre überaus wertvolle Hilfe den besten Dank aus. Auch dem Springer-Verlag gebührt besonderer Dank für die gewohnt gute Herstellung und technische AUfistattung der beiden Berichtsbände.
