Description
Yes folks, Space Science Digest reached it's 50th issue, but what a bombshell!
News that radio signals were being picked up from the Moon overshadowed the 50th, and meant it went by unnoticed.
What were these signals?
What did they say?
Another Geodesic rocketship graces this cover.
Thanks for looking in again.

Fantastic cover design. You are really capturing the retro look.
Sweet cover once again, retro rocks!
So not only do we get messages from the moon mate, you have the young Patrick Moore in this issue too, I thought this issue had disapeared, wonderful, you don't by any chance have the later one when Mr Moore and that young American chap Carl Sagen do their discussion about life on other worlds do you mate, it ends up starting that whole USUK Uranus expedition that was planned, it was such a shame the lack of technology at the time scuppered this
Love your cover renders.... (you might want to check your spelling tho... It's "Exclusive" The word on the cover is missing an "L"... ;-)
The signals were so strong that amateur radio operators could pick them up. While officially the signals were random bursts, some of the ham operators said that the message was in Morse code. The message, "C A V O R" repeated over and over again. One newspaper reported that Professor Quatermass' father had been taught by a Professor Cavor. When reporters asked, Professor Q would just say, "No comment!"
Thunderstone - yeah I noticed after I had uploaded it :( (There's also an 'a' missing from because) Put it down to the staff at SSD rushing to get that headline done, lol I'll upload a corrected version later.
