In Case You Forgot Who Wrote It: The cover of the Anthology mentions Clifton Fadiman wrote the introduction because, at the time, he was a famous celebrity in the Science Fiction community, having made the transition to mainstream publicity.

Artistic License – Space: The cover presents an awesome Earth-rise from behind the moon, framed by a red nebula that goes from hot pink to dark black. Awesome cover, but complete fiction.
