AIAA-Houston has just published the Jan-Feb 2013 issue of “Horizons,” a free downloadable PDF magazine. Along with quite a number of other articles, also included is a restored reprint of the “Man’s Survival In Space” article from the Feb. 23, 1953, issue of Collier’s magazine. This is the fourth in the series of eight reprints of the famed Collier’s “Man Will Conquer Space Soon!” articles from the 1950’s. As always, this issue can be downloaded as either high or low resolution.

And as before, the restoration of the scans was done by yours truly.

Also included in this issue is a Mini-APR article on a NASA-Langley concept for a two-man inflatable spaceplane concept from the early 1960’s.
