The Astounding Photos that Made America Fall in Love with Science

Fritz Goro was one of the most important science photographers of all time, capturing the huge scientific advances after World War II, and the start of the Space Race. And now Life Magazine has a breathtaking gallery of Goro’s most unforgettable images, which show us the cutting-edge science of the 1950s and 1960s. They’re beautiful, but they also illuminate the world we live in today.

Here are a selection of a few of our favorite images from Life’s Fritz Goro gallery. (That top image is inventor Allyn Hazard testing his “moon suit mock-up” in a lava crater in the Mojave Desert — the suit carried oxygen and food.) Check out the rest over at Life Magazine. [via Boing Boing]
