Here is a book about the Space Race—not merely this year's race, or even next year's, but about that race in the decade and more to come. The predictions of leading space authorities are used by the distinguished author to provide a blueprint of the projects, already underway and planned, which can in the next ten years move this country into the forefront of exploration on the space frontier. In this painstakingly compiled yet lively and profusely illustrates volume, Otto O. Binder describes pioneering work on the giant chemical boosters, manned space stations, and follow-on space vehicles intended to visit the moon, Venus, and Mars.
