Good Luck Wishes
(N.Z.P.A-Reuter—Copyright) MOSCOW, May 20. The Soviet Union today wished good luck to the crew of the American Apollo 10 moon probe, but indicated that it felt their journey was dangerous at the present stage of space exploration. "We hope that the brave crew of the spaceship now heading for the moon will cope successfully with the flight programme and will return safely to earth,” the Government newspaper, “Izvestia,” said. Moscow Radio declared: “People wish success to the American space explorers who are prepared to make UP with their courage for any insufficient reliability of the craft.” Both the radio and “Izvestia” underlined the risks inherent in the Apollo mission.
