"A plane has crashed. Send help!" Fire engines rush to the scene. But it's not a plane they find. It's that crazy Robert Goddard-and another rocket that he has fired off! Again and again he tries. Why? Because Robert Goddard has a dream: if man can shoot a rocket into the sky far enough and fast enough he can someday reach the moon. Here is the exiting story of the rocket genius whose work opened the pathway into space.
