The fascinating story of how NASA sent humans to explore outer
space, told through a treasure trove of documents from the NASA
archives Among all the technological accomplishments of the last
century, none has captured our imagination more deeply than the
movement of humans into outer space. From Sputnik to SpaceX, the
story of that journey is told as never before in The Penguin Book
of Outer Space Exploration. Renowned space historian John Logsdon
has uncovered the most fascinating items in the NASA archive and
woven them together with expert narrative guidance to create a
history of how Americans got to space and what they've done there.
Beginning with rocket genius Wernher von Braun's vision for
voyaging to Mars and closing with Elon Musk's contemporary plan to
get there, this volume traces major events like the founding of
NASA, the first American astronauts in space, the moon landings,
the Challenger disaster, the daring Hubble Telescope repairs and
more.
