Archival records of the Guggenheim Aeronautical Laboratory rocket group: the 1936 test-team photograph and the oral histories of Frank Malina (1978) and Apollo M. O. Smith (1995). They anchor the documented side of Jack Parsons's story, against which the corpus's occult and conspiratorial readings are measured.
