The letter discusses the nation's moon exploration plans and the concern over the potential for communism to dominate space. The writer believes it is important to conduct research in space to prevent this and to ensure the earth does not come under communist domination. The letter also mentions the importance of addressing the problems on earth and turning back to God. A poem by Walter H. Huntley is included, expressing the sentiment that man should focus on cleaning up the mess on earth rather than reaching the moon.
