Portrait of American physicist, Robert Goddard
Portrait of Robert Goddard (1882-1945), American physicist and pioneer of liquid-fuelled rockets. This photograph was taken when Goddard was 42 years old, teaching at Clark University. Goddard was born and educated at Worcester, Massachusetts. He studied physics at Clark University, working as Professor there for most of his life. In 1919, he published his paper on the practical aspects of spaceflight. In 1926, he built and tested a kerosene/liquid oxygen rocket. By 1935 he had even built supersonic rockets, guided by gyroscopes. It was not until 15 years after his death that the US Government made a $1 million payment to his widow for infringing some of his 216 patents

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the brilliant mind and determined spirit of American physicist, Robert Goddard. At the age of 42, while teaching at Clark University, Goddard posed for this portrait that would forever immortalize his contributions to science and space exploration. Born and educated in Worcester, Massachusetts, Goddard's fascination with physics led him to study at Clark University where he eventually became a revered professor. In 1919, he published a groundbreaking paper on the practical aspects of spaceflight, laying the foundation for future advancements in rocket technology. In 1926, Goddard's ingenuity came to life as he successfully built and tested a kerosene/liquid oxygen rocket. His determination knew no bounds as by 1935 he had even constructed supersonic rockets guided by gyroscopes. Despite his remarkable achievements during his lifetime, it was only after his passing that the US Government recognized his genius by making a $1 million payment to his widow for infringing upon some of his 216 patents. This print serves as a tribute to Robert Goddard's pioneering work in rocketry and space exploration. It captures not just an image but also the essence of an extraordinary man who dared to dream beyond Earth's boundaries.
