Having grown up in the '60s, a lot of us boys wanted to be astronauts (GIRLS couldn't be astronauts... little did we know). There was an ad for a space capsule (and a submarine too) in a lot of comic books. If it was like this one I notice that it looks more like a Dalek. Still... lots of fun memories of being part of a team to explore the strange new planet that just happened to be the back yards of all the houses on the block. I'm glad this was posted.

Surely a Johnstone & Cushing production. The kids seem to have been drawn by a different artist than the astronauts.

This came out in 1961. I'm intrigued by the detail that at the bottom of each page is a 'Flash Fact' One of the characteristics of the 60' and 70's DC FLASH was the 'Flash Facts' Co-incidence? or was someone on DC's staff involved in both books?
