Exploring the Solar System
Beginning in the early days of the Space Age - well before the advent of manned spaceflight - the United States, followed soon by other nations, undertook an ambitious effort to study the planets of the solar system. The remarkable fruits of this research revolutionized the public's view of their celestial neighbors, capturing the imaginations of people from all backgrounds like nothing else save the Apollo lunar missions. From the first space probes to the most recent planetary rovers, they have continually delivered impressive discoveries and reshaped our understanding of the cosmos. Offering fascinating investigations into this crucial chapter in space history, this collection of specially commissioned essays from leading historians opens new vistas in our understanding of the development of planetary science.
The Value of Science in Space Exploration
In The Value of Science in Space Exploration, James S.J. Schwartz provides a thoughtful and rigorous defense of the view that space exploration activities should focus primarily on science, and that the knowledge and understanding we will gain from expanded space science activities will benefit humanity more over the next century than any attempts to settle Mars or mine asteroids.
