Hello

So scan of this pic you have in attachment (i think there are not problems with copyright so scan is in better resolution - i hope it is not problem...please tell me if it is problem )

his research,such as in Valier-2 picture,you will see a Lippisch concept depended
on his work.

I've changed the title, as we have some other designs now, than just type 2 ...

Max Valier actually was quite succesul in designing liquid fuelled rockets, although he died in an
accident with one of his developments. Nevertheless, as a designer of aircraft, he's not undisputed.
He was a supporter of the development of rockets, but according to several sources, he was more an
author and novelist, than an aircraft designer, with a foible for some sorts of pseudo-science. And many
of his designs are more "Imaginations of the future from the past", than real aircraft designs.

Thank you my dear Jemiba.

Context. Great find, hesham, Thx!!!!! Only Alexandre Annanoff, founding father of the International Astronautical Federation (IAF) could have authored this article in 1945. He befriended with Eugen Sänger, and had a huge knowledge of astronautics (pre)history (Rynin's encyclopaedia, pre-war correspondence, etc.). The very title of this article implies connections with Sänger's top secret report UM-3538 whose contents he helped popularize, later. FWIW, Sänger did not flee to the US or Soviet Union, but settled in Chatillon worked in / for France (Onera) where he regularly met with his friend Annanoff. Sänger's son, a good friend of mine who passed away :'(, showed me once where they lived in France.

I feel it is only right and proper at this particular point in time to reintroduce the NASA concept of Technology Readiness Levels, see https://www.nasa.gov/pdf/458490main_TRL_Definitions.pdf, into the debate. Discuss amongst yourselves.

Might go further than looks like and actually be, last word in photo caption is America.
