The Adventures of Space Bunny (1958)



I often have a Xmas post each year, this year it is my first Easter post!

This coloring book is rather generic except it is unique to me about how some animals decided to explore space.

The Adventures of Space Bunny. Akron, Ohio: Saalfield Publishing Co. 22 pp. 1958  #2051

In the interest of truth in advertising it is actually the adventures of space bunny AND mouse since you should always travel with a buddy.

 In this age of Sputnik you can read a book of spaceship designs and find the one you need.

 One must carefully plan your supplies for the trip although it look like eggs were not part of the plan (sorry for the Easter letdown).
 The big breakthrough was in helmet design allowing the ears to retain function in vacuum
 I appreciate the innovative design that eliminates a hatch, instead of making the entire floor the door

 The mastery of orbital dynamics and speed of flight makes a direct ballistic path to the Moon the least complicated one available.
Their interactions with the Moon natives is classified so we will have to leave them out at this time.  Happy Easter/Spring/delayed equinox to all!
