Almost certainly inspired by the iconic "Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima" photograph taken just eight years before this magazine was published, this cover shows three astronauts struggling with a much larger flag than the one left by Apollo 11. Why it takes three people with the Moon's much lower gravity is a question the artist should have asked. Still, it has a 1950's Sci-Fi feel that is very cool.
