Hey, I have the french version of "Man in Space" (received on Xmas 1968)...I loved it so much it's in pieces:-(((( (The cartoon of the poor ET who crashed in Arizona, crowling and begging for Ammonia...Ammonia:-).

Lucien Rudeaux (French astronomer and painter) knew back in the 1930's that on the South pole of the Moon, mountains had gentle edges, but he didn't quite extrapolate for the rest of the surface.

I read in Piers Bizony's "2001, filming the future", Douglas Trumbull wanted the surface to have gentle slopes, but he got "outranked" by his boss Kubrick.
