kart. Condition: Wie neu. 188 S. : Illustr., graph. Darst. ; 24 cm; Nahezu neuwertiges, sehr gutes Ex. - Hermann Noordung (1892-1929) war einer der visonärsten Raumfahrtspioniere der zwanziger Jahre. Früh verstorben, war der k. k. Ingenieur slowenischer Herkunft - mit dem eigentlichen Namen Herman Potocnik - in den letzten Lebensjahren in Wien als "Noordung" in den Ruf eines genialen Vordenkers des bemannten Raketenflugs gekommen. Sein Buch, eigentlich eine Art Lehrbuch der Astronautik, wurde zur Bibel für die Raketenbauer der dreißiger Jahre. Zu den Bewunderern Noordungs gehörte etwa auch Wernher von Braun, der spätere Konstrukteur der V2 und Vater des amerikanischen Raumfahrtsprogrammes. Der Roman "2001 - Odyssee im Weltraum" von Arthur C. Clarke und der gleichnamige Film Stanley Kubricks bezogen sich explizit auf Noordungs Theorien der Raumfahrt. Noordungs Buch über das Problem der Befahrung des Weltraums blieb jedoch weithin verschollen und wird hier nach einem der wenigen erhaltenen Originale wiedergegeben. (Verlagstext) // INHALT : Einleitung -- Die Macht der Schwere -- Die praktische Schweregrenze der Erde -- Die freie Umlaufbahn -- Das Manövrieren in den Schwerefeldern des Weltraums -- Der Panzer der Erdlufthülle -- Die bisher erreichten äußersten Höhen -- Der Kanonenschuß in den Weltraum -- Der Rückstoß -- Das Rückstoßfahrzeug -- Die Rakete -- Die bisherigen Bearbeiter des Raumfahrtproblems -- Die Fahrgeschwindigkeit und der Wirkungsgrad bei Raketen-Fahrzeugen -- Der Aufstieg -- Allgemeines über den Aufbau der Raumrakete -- Die bisherigen Vorschläge -- Bemerkungen zu den bisherigen Konstruktionsvorschlägen -- Die Rückkehr zur Erde -- Das Hohmannsche Landungsmanöver -- Landung in erzwungener Kreisbewegung -- Landung in Bremsellipsen -- Das Oberthsche Landungsmanöver -- Das bisherige Ergebnis -- Noch zwei wichtige Fragen -- Die Raumrakete im schiefen Wurf -- Die Raumrakete als Flugzeug -- Eine Warte im leeren Weltraum -- Das Wesen der Schwere und ihre Beeinflußbarkeit -- Der Einfluß der Schwerefreiheit auf den menschlichen Organismus -- Das physikalische Verhalten der Körper bei Fehlen der Schwere // (u.v.a.) ISBN 9783851320602 Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 248 [Nachdr. der Ausg.] Berlin, Schmidt, 1929.
