| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In 1964, Arthur C. Clarke perceptively noted that "one day, we may have brain surgeons in Edinburgh operating on patients in New Zealand. When that time comes, the whole world would've shrunk to a point and the traditional role of the city as a meeting place for men would've ceased to make any sense. In fact, men will no longer commute-they will communicate." Clarke's comment predicts rather accurately some of the achievements in man's outer space activities since the Sputnik launch in 1957 and the signature of the Outer Space Treaty in 1967. |
