The first meeting of the Canadian Aeronautical Institute's Astronautical section takes place at the RACF Officer's Mess on Gloucester Street in Ottawa. The executive committee is installed and three speakers deliver papers.
- The Clock Paradox by W.F. Campbell (National Research Council)
- Propulsion Systems for Space Travel by Dr H.S. Ribner (UTIA)
- Guidance and Control by R.D. Richmond and D. Bogdanoff (Canadair)
This is the inauguration of the third Canadian Astronautical organisation. A year earlier the Canadian Astronautical Society was inaugurated in Toronto and the Astronautical Society of Canada began in Montreal.
