Book Overview
The launching of Sputnik I in 1957 by the Soviet Union was a wake-up call to the U.S. and the true beginning of our space program. NASA was formed soon after and the space race heated up, culminating in 1969 with Apollo 11's successful landing on the Moon. Cooperation with the Soviets and now Russia has resulted in great leaps for our space program, including the use of unmanned probes to explore distant planets and the construction of space stations which open up the intriguing possibility of future space colonies. Lots of illustrations and sidebars make the reading inviting and accessible.
