[meteorite-list] Who invented the phrase 'the poor man's space probe'?

[MexicoDoug]

... nothing but a 'poor man's space probe' launched unceremoniously 
somewhere in the asteroidal belt sometime during the last two billion 
years [sic.] ...


1960 - Dr. Edward Anders
Univ. of Chicago

... unless Nininger said something similar earlier!

Best wishes
Doug

Dear list members,

Does anyone know who was the first who called a meteorite 'the poor 
man's space
probe"?

Best regards

Martin
