Also, in Cromie's, The track of Doom, which was published in 1895, a strange force resembling atomic energy is threatening the world. The first test of the substance, made thousands of years earlier, had destroyed the fifth planet which created the asteroid belt.

Goddard, early German rocket experimenter Max Valier, Herman Oberth of the V1 and V2 fame and inventor of me solar space mirror, and the late Donald H. Menzel. Writes Gernsback: 'For the record, it should be noted too, that the American rocket society was founded by the writers, employees and authors' and he further states that its first organ, the Bulletin of the Interplanetary Society was 'published and financed by the writer (Gernsback) in 1930.' In: Hugo Gernsback, 'Forecast 1958,' Space Review, 1958, the author, pages 2-3. Goddard worked on his rocket designs in the thirties near Roswell, New Mexico. Valier and Oberth are briefly mentioned in one of the pamphlets of the 'Reichsarbeitsgemeinschaft'. Oberth expressed his thoughts on the UFO phenomenon on several occasions. Menzel would later become notorious in UFO-research circles for his attempts to debunk the UFO phenomenon in several books.
