About this title

Synopsis

Rethinking the space station: costs, rationale, and a new, smarter design

This nonfiction account covers a congressional hearing on President Clinton’s redesigned space station program. It follows key witnesses from NASA, MIT, the Planetary Society, and the American Physical Society as they discuss why a space station is worth pursuing, how to cut costs, and how to involve international partners. The briefing frames the big questions about value, priorities, and governance for the nation’s space program.

In clear terms, it explains the different design options, the challenges of budgeting billions for space exploration, and how changes in management and partnerships could shape future work in space science and technology. The material helps readers understand the debate between maintaining momentum on a complex project and pursuing more cost-effective, collaborative approaches.

Understand the core questions: why build a space station and what it should achieve
Compare design options and how they affect cost, schedule, and capabilities
Learn how management changes and international cooperation could reduce risk and expense
See how lawmakers, NASA, and scientists weigh priorities for space science, exploration, and technology

Ideal for readers of policy analysis, space policy history, and those curious about how large science programs are planned and funded.

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
