Descriere magazin:
After his untimely death in 1952, maverick rocketeer
John Parsons was revealed to have been a follower of occultist Aleister Crowley and was promptly written off as an embarrassment to science. Here,
Pendle recovers a fascinating life and explores the unruly consequences of genius. Now a CBS All Access series created by Mark Heyman with executive producer Ridley Scott. ROCKET SCIENTIST KILLED IN PASADENA EXPLOSION screamed the headline of the Los Angeles Times .
John Parsons, a maverick rocketeer who helped transform the rocket from a derided sci-fi plot line into a reality, was at first mourned as a scientific prodigy. But reporters soon uncovered a more shocking story:
Parsons had been a devotee of black magic.
George Pendle re-creates the world of
John Parsons in this dazzling portrait of prewar superstition, cold war paranoia, and futuristic possibility. Fueled by childhood dreams of space flight, Parsons was a leader of the motley band of enthusiastic young men who founded the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a cornerstone of the American space program. But Parsons\'s wild imagination also led him into the occult- for if he could make rocketry a reality, why not magic? With a cast of characters including Howard Hughes, L. Ron Hubbard, and Robert Heinlein,
Strange Angel explores the unruly consequences of genius.
