Recent advances in the understanding of star formation and
evolution have been impressive and aspects of that knowledge are
explored in this volume. The black hole stellar endpoints are
studied and geodesic motion is explored. The emission of
gravitational waves is featured due to their very recent
experimental discovery.The second aspect of the text is space
exploration which began 62 years ago with the Sputnik Earth
satellite followed by the landing on the Moon just 50 years ago.
Since then Mars has been explored remotely as well as flybys of the
outer planets and probes which have escaped the solar system. The
text explores many aspects of rocket travel. Finally possibilities
for interstellar travel are discussed.All these topics are treated
in a unified way using the Matlab App to combine text, figures,
formulae and numeric input and output. In this way the reader may
vary parameters and see the results in real time. That experience
aids in building up an intuitive feel for the many specific
problems given in this text.
