Editorial Review Product Description In Space Policy in the Twenty-First Century, W. Henry Lambright brings together tentop-ranking observers of United States space exploration to address these and other issuesrelating to the future of the space program. While the U.S. no longer competes with the Sovietsfor technological "firsts," they argue, ideology and national image remain at the core of spacepolicy, with other factors playing subordinate roles. Reminding readers of the historicalhighlights, the authors pose searching questions about the priorities and applications of spacescience, manned vs. unmanned flights, and commercial access to the space enterprise. Contributors include: Christopher F. Chyba, SETI Institute and Stanford University; Ronald J.Deibert, University of Toronto; Daniel H. Deudney, the Johns Hopkins University; W.

A Concise Historical and Scientific Jupiter Two Reference The history layed out runs from 1970 beginning with the President's "State of the Union Address" all the way through October 1997 when, as all Lost in Space fans know, the Jupiter Two was launched.During these developing years you find out who developed the equations, which scientific corporations were involved and what their contributions were, what preceeded the Jupiter Two in terms of early exploratory spacecraft and probes, and so forth. The plotting equations will be recognized by anyone who has taken trigonometry.The engine design equations are much more complicated.Even though I took a year of calculus in college, these equations are beyond that. The drawings and schematics are nicely detailed and believable. It's easy to get overwhelmed by all the acronyms used in this book. Also, the timetable for a project of this magnitude was probably a bit ambitious especially given all the delays and cost overruns we hear about real projects going on in our daily lives. However, if you're a Lost in Space fan and you want a believable account of how the mission to Alpha Centauri developed, this book should fit the bill.
