A sad day for space…
In my own experience, Van Allen was wonderfully approachable to two authors he had never heard of. When Erika Lishock and I began writing The First Space Race, I called him out of the blue. He was happy to answer all our queries, sat for a day-long interview, corrected a draft of the book, and wrote a Forward as well as a laudatory letter that we will always treasure.
Godspeed,
Matt Bille
