U.S.A.F. Chief of Staff 2013 Professional Reading List Selection Nearly forty years passed between the Apollo moon landings, the
grandest accomplishment of a government-run space program, and the
Ansari X PRIZE-winning flights of SpaceShipOne, the greatest
achievement of a private space program. Now, as we hover on the
threshold of commercial spaceflight, authors Chris Dubbs and
Emeline Paat-Dahlstrom look back at how we got to this point. Their book traces the lives of the individuals who shared the
dream that private individuals and private enterprise belong in
space. Realizing Tomorrow provides a behind-the-scenes look at the
visionaries, the crackpots, the financial schemes, the legal
wrangling, the turf battles, and--underpinning the entire
drama--the overwhelming desire of ordinary people to visit outer
space.
