Hardcover with dust jacket. Although a number of books have appeared on the exploration of space, this is the first to be written for the general reader by a panel of scientists who are themselves prominent in the field of current research. It is of particular interest and importance because it comes at a time when man's conquest of space is moving from the realm of conjecture into that of experimental fact. - Compiled under the distinguished editorship of Professor Bates, it systematically surveys the whole subject, from the construction of rockets and the research already done on the upper atmosphere to the launching of artificial satellites and the final possibility of voyages to the nearer planets. Such questions as the possible use of an 'atomic drive', hazards from meteors and cosmic rays, and the immense difficulties of navigation in inter-planetary space, are carefully considered. - The authors have not set out to provide easy simplifications but to describe the problems that actually face research workers and the means that are being tried out to overcome them. There is however nothing in the main text that cannot be followed by an intelligent reader with no scientific training. Where a mathematical treatment of a problem has seemed useful, it has been provided separately in an appendix. 224 p. illustrations good condition, some tears in the edges of dust jacked are taped.
