00400	Dear Hans:
00500	
00600		As I told you on the phone, we are trying to organize
00700	a charter flight from the Stanford area to watch the
00800	Apollo 15 launch on July 26, and we would appreciate any
00900	help we can get from NASA.
01000	
01100		Specifically, we would like
01200	
01300		1. Admission to a good place to see the launch from.
01400	
01500		2. A tour of the Cape Kennedy facility.
01600	
01700		3. Some speakers to tell us about NASA activities and plans.
01800	It would be most interesting if we could get Dr. von Braun and
01900	possibly an astronaut.
02000	
02100		In order to get the reduced costs of a charter flight,
02200	we shall have to recruit a group of about 100.  The audience
02300	will be technically oriented, probably fairly well informed, 
02400	and presumably enthusiastic about manned space flight.
02500	There will be lots of questions.
02600	
02700		I will be grateful for any help you can give us and
02800	also for advice about how to plan a good program.    It would
02900	help with publicity to know about speakers early.
03000	
03100						Sincerely yours,
