Bad Predictions
"The acceleration which must result from the use of rockets, or from
being fired out of a gun by explosion, inevitably would damage the
brain beyond repair. The exact rate of acceleration in feet per second
that the human brain can survive is not know . It is almost certainly
not enough, however, to render flight by rockets possible."
- J.P. Lockhart-Mummery, After Us, 1936.
