Beginning in the early days of the Space Age - well before the
advent of manned spaceflight - the United States, followed soon by
other nations, undertook an ambitious effort to study the planets
of the solar system. The remarkable fruits of this research
revolutionized the public's view of their celestial neighbors,
capturing the imaginations of people from all backgrounds like
nothing else save the Apollo lunar missions. From the first space
probes to the most recent planetary rovers, they have continually
delivered impressive discoveries and reshaped our understanding of
the cosmos. Offering fascinating investigations into this crucial
chapter in space history, this collection of specially commissioned
essays from leading historians opens new vistas in our
understanding of the development of planetary science.
