WorldCat lists only the JPL Library’s own copy of the 1964 booklet about Ranger VII and its first pictures of the moon sent back to Earth. The only book about Ranger VII, written by Ley, the famous German émigré space authority, was never issued in hardback. JPL's scientifically important Mariner missions were overshadowed by the moon landings. These formed the foundation for all future interplanetary probes.
