For spacemen. And earth families.

This silent morning, on Space Shuttle #28, breakfast will probably begin with Tang.

Imagine a spaceship that carries 12 passengers and lands as easily as an airplane. It will be ferrying back and forth to space by the late 1970’s.
And if the future is like the present, Tang will be there in its galley. Just as it’s on your kitchen table.
Nutritious, orange-flavored Tang. The instant breakfast drink with more Vitamin C than orange juice.
No matter where you are.

Tang. For spacemen. And earth families.

(NY28-March II) DYNA-SOAR PROJECT FACES HURDLES–This is an artist’s conception of the Dyna-Soar manned space glider of which the Air Force faces possible loss or severe cutback. Artist shows here how the pilot of the space craft will discard the cockpit heat shield while orbiting in the airlessness of space in order to make scientific observations while circling the globe.

(LA8-Sept. 20) DYNA-SOAR IN FLIGHT — This artist’s concept of how the Dyna-Soar space ship will be put into orbit around the earth depicts the burnout of the strap-on solid fuel motors and the ignition of the Titan III first stage engines as the solid-fuel motor falls away. Successive stages will blast the Dyna-Soar into an orbit 100 miles high at speeds of more than 17,000 miles and hour. (U.S. Air Force Photo via AP Wirephoto) (rhs51340) 1962
