Description

ALS signed “Jack Lousma, Major USMC, NASA Astronaut,” three pages, 8 x 10.5, NASA letterhead, no date. Handwritten letter to "Jack," in part: "The full value of lunar flights will become more evident as time goes on simply because we are not smart enough to ask all the right questions in advance. For the moment, however, a lot of scientific information is being evaluated which will help us to understand and develop the world in which we live. We have also seen many new products and processes become available as a result of the space program. The space program, because it is progressive, has stimulated progress in many other areas of our life, all of which contribute to people's way of life both individually and as a whole. Lunar flights have captured the adventuresome spirit of people around the world. For once, Americans have collectively been involved as a nation in a peaceful effort which has won the respect and good wishes of people of many nations." In fine condition, with light toning to the first page.
