Default Re: Arthur C.Clarke

Dear John,
If you take a look at the story "Brick Moon" by Nathan Hale ( yes, that Nathan
Hale) you will see a description of space based orbiting telescopes that
predates Clarke ( the child abusing member of NAMBLA) by many decades.

Clarke gets credit for the idea of using a synchronous satellite as a
commication satellite--too bad the idea was published by Constantine TS. many
decades earlier.

He did write some nice SF stories though.
