This volume addresses the creation, documentation, preservation,
and study of the archaeology of lunar, planetary, and interstellar
exploration.It defines the attributes of common human technological
expressions within national and, increasingly, private exploration
efforts, and explore the archaeology of both fixed and mobile
artifacts in the solar system and the wider galaxy.
This book presents the research of the foremost scholars in the
field of space archaeology and heritage, a recent discipline of the
field of Space Archaeology and Heritage. It provides the emerging
archaeological perspective on the history of the human exploration
of space.Since humans have been creating a vast archaeological
preserve in space and on other celestial bodies.This assemblage of
heritage objects and sites attest to the human presence off the
Earth and the study of these material remains are best investigated
by archaeologists and historic preservationists.As space
exploration has reached the half century mark, it is the
appropriate time to reflect on the major events and technological
development of this particular unique 20th century arena of human
history.
The authors encapsulate various ways of looking at the archaeology
of both fixed and mobile human artifacts in the solar system.As
missions continue into space, and as private ventures gear up for
public and tourist visits to space and to the Moon and even Mars,
it is the appropriate time to address questions about the meaning
and significance of this material culture."
