Quotes by Auguste Piccard (?)

“As to rocket ships flying between America and Europe, I believe it is worth seriously trying for. Thirty years ago persons who were developing flying were laughed at as mad, and that scorn hindered aviation. Now we heap similar ridicule upon stratoplane or rocket ships for trans-Atlantic flights. (1933)

[Predicting high-altitude jet aircraft for routine long-distance travel.]”
― Auguste Piccard
