| Beschreibung: | "This volume takes readers back - to the days before astronauts like John Glenn, Alan Shepard, and Neil Armstrong were household names; before the "one small step" that left America's national footprint on the Moon; and before the wonders of science fiction became the wonders of science fact - to the heyday of the televised rocketman. It was a time when battles were fought with Para-Ray guns and Cosmic Vibrators, "Opticon Scillometers" scanned through walls, heroes in jetpacks soared through the skies, and the universe was full of wonder. The fourteen essays featured here focus on series such as Space Patrol, Tom Corbett, and Captain Z-Ro, exploring their roles in the day-to-day lives of their fans through topics such as mentoring, promotion of the real-world space program, merchandising, gender issues, and ranger clubs - all the while, promoting the fledgling medium of television"-- Provided by publisher. |

| spelling | 1950's "rocketman" TV series and their fans cadets, rangers, and junior space men edited by Cynthia J. Miller and A. Bowdoin Van Riper Nineteen hundred fifties "rocketman" TV series and their fans New York, NY Palgrave Macmillan September 2012 xxiv, 270 Seiten Illustrationen txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier "This volume takes readers back - to the days before astronauts like John Glenn, Alan Shepard, and Neil Armstrong were household names; before the "one small step" that left America's national footprint on the Moon; and before the wonders of science fiction became the wonders of science fact - to the heyday of the televised rocketman. It was a time when battles were fought with Para-Ray guns and Cosmic Vibrators, "Opticon Scillometers" scanned through walls, heroes in jetpacks soared through the skies, and the universe was full of wonder. The fourteen essays featured here focus on series such as Space Patrol, Tom Corbett, and Captain Z-Ro, exploring their roles in the day-to-day lives of their fans through topics such as mentoring, promotion of the real-world space program, merchandising, gender issues, and ranger clubs - all the while, promoting the fledgling medium of television"-- Provided by publisher.
