Thank you SO much for posting this APOD on Goddard. I've been interested in rockets since I was a kid in the early 60's, although my own experiments were limited to Estes models, but I did get to help design attitude control systems for real LEO and GEO spacecraft in the 80's and 90's.
Tonight as a result of your post, I ended up reading Goddard's Wikipedia page and learned much more about him that I hadn't known previously. It really made my evening! :-)
