Ley’s survey of key moments in the modern history of rocketry, written from his perspective as a former leader of the German rocket society (Verein für Raumschiffahrt), not long after his emigration to the United States following the Nazi seizure of German rocketry research.
Appeared in Thrilling Wonder Stories, Vol. 10, No. 3 (December 1937); the cover itself bills the piece simply as “Rockets by Willy Ley, World’s Foremost Authority.”
Also in the collection: Ley’s book Rockets (1944) and his two-part Astounding Science Fiction article “The End of the Rocket Society” (1943).
