Synopsis:
Traces the history of people's fantasies of space travel, from cave drawings, to the the Apollo II moon landing, and beyond, with contributing thoughts from astronauts, historians, science fiction writers, and scientists
From School Library Journal:
YA-- Ben Bova, Wernher von Braun, and Sally Ride are among the 23 contributors to this collection of profusely illustrated essays that address the history of space travel in actuality and as it is viewed in art and literature. After an evaluation of America's modern program, several proposals for the future are given. Students interested in the genesis of space travel as an idea and/or as a fact get both an overview and the information necessary to formulate their own opinions. Those interested in the politics, the personalities, and the potential of such journeys will find much to think about here. Whether for research or pleasure, browsing or thorough perusal, this book will give readers a better idea of where humankind has been and where it may go next.
