Establishment of meteorological and communication satellites, possibly manned, certainly visited by servicing teams. Manned flights around the Moon, without landing. Robot landings on Moon. Flight tests of nuclear propulsion devices.The TV satellite is mightier than the ICBM; this is the fact which I would earnestly bring to the attention of your committee.".
