Thursday, November 9, 1967, marked a major break-through in the space program of the United States and the world. On that date, from Cape Kennedy, Florida, America's ma- jestic Saturn V super-rocket hurled an un- manned Apollo moon ship into space to pre- pare for U. S. astronauts landing on the moon. Its maiden journey and its safe return to a robot-manned Apollo capsule at lunar mission s peed, surpassed all previous scientific achievements and accomplishments. With this flight came the realization that man could now reach out from the earth to- ward goals heretofore believed unobtainable. Planets so distant they could not even be seen with the most powerful telescope now be- came a reality and a challenge to the learned of the world. A knowledge beyond anything yet conceived began to unfold before the eyes of an awed audience. The students of Lincoln Northeast also expanded their horizons during the year. Ideas and goals they had never dreamed of now came within the range of their comprehension and their imagination. They realized that vast un- tapped areas of knowledge wait to be dis- covered. The arts, the sciences, the vocations, became their outer space target, and as the year unfolded, each Northeast Rocket devel- oped his own individual flight plan-A Flight Plan of Launching, Exploring, Discovering.
