Private collection compiled by Ronald G Bedford OBE (1921-2012) Science Editor of the Daily and Sunday Mirror (1962-1986)
As Science Editor of the Daily and Sunday Mirror, Ronald Bedford gave millions of readers first-hand accounts from the control rooms or press tables of Cape Canaveral and Houston of such momentous events as the first ever circumnavigation of the Moon and return – by Apollo 8; the first Moon landing – by Apollo 11; the epic flight of the mission that never reached the lunar surface – Apollo 13; the first motor car to be driven on the Moon – from Apollo 15; the last manned mission – Apollo 17 and their respective splashdowns.
Throughout his career with the Mirror from well before Yuri Gagarin's first manned space flight in 1961 until his retirement in 1986, Ronnie chronicled everything. The collection represents his career-long determination to record every detail of the men and women involved in what became known as the "Space Race".
