[089] Rocket in Clark University lab interior
No full textPhotograph of one of Robert Goddard\u27s rockets stationed in what is presumably an indoor laboratory space relating to Clark University\u27s Physics department. This photograph does not have an annotation by Esther Goddard, but within the photo album chronologically it would put Goddard back at Clark during the 1932-1934 period between his two grant funded periods in Roswell, New Mexico (1930-1932 and 1934-1942).
\u27The Goddard Rocket Researches: A Photographic Record\u27 is an annotated photo album covering Robert H. Goddard\u27s work and experimentation with rocketry. It was assembled and curated by Esther Goddard sometime after her husband\u27s passing in 1945. Additionally, almost all of the photographs were taken by Esther herself.
