These aircraft were used by the Finnish Air Force and played a crucial role in the country's air defense during the Cold War. The MiG-21 was one of the most advanced fighter jets of its time and was known for its speed, maneuverability and simple yet effective design. The MiG-21 is a single-engine supersonic fighter aircraft designed for aerial combat and interception missions. The aircraft is known for its delta wing design and high speed, can reach speeds of up to Mach 2 and has an operational ceiling of approximately 17,500 meters. The presence of the MiG-21 in museums in Helsinki is a reminder of the complex geopolitical situation during the Cold War, with Finland having to strike a delicate balance between the influence of both the Soviet Union and the West.

perspective_v_c_o_AKP (unnumbered, ca. 1965-1972)

Amusing artists’ concept, circa mid-60s to early-70s?, of how space flight/technology is “viewed” by the disciplines involved.

Artists C. Jene Goodger & John B. Hinkle, responsible for the cover artwork of “The Light Stuff: Space Humor — From Sputnik to Space Shuttle”, by Bob Ward, published in 1982 by Jester Books, are likely the creators of this as well.
As an aside...admit it, if you’re ~45+ years old & liked this space stuff during the 80s, you had this book.
