This third book in the Technology Trilogy describes the development
of several emerging technologies from 1970 to the start of the 3rd
millennium written to explain the human side of science and
technology. Against a background of world space exploration, the
Cold War, U.S. defense systems, European Space Agency imaging of
Halley's Comet, search for the Soviet nuclear explosion at
Chernobyl, Russia's crash space programs, and the runaway 1995
Hurricane Season, these three decades kept our nation alerted to
communist aggressions. Once again you are there through the
author's eyewitness experiences in one adventure after another -
from the continued assault on Mars to an in-flight refueling of a
B52 bomber and the technology education of gifted young people.
While each chapter stands on its own merit, each presents a
separate view of the entire picture of the last quarter of the 20th
century. If you remember the 20th century, or if you want to gain a
glimpse of world events at the end of the century, you will want to
read this exciting book.
