Description
Neil deGrasse Tyson's latest collection offers a thought-provoking and humorous take on NASA and the future of space travel. As the US space program faces uncertainty, Tyson shares his insights on the importance of space exploration for America's economy, security, and morale.
In this book, Tyson provides a candid new introductory essay on NASA and partisan politics, followed by a range of commentary on topics such as the missteps that shaped our recent history of space travel and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. With his trademark humor and fresh voice, Tyson's views are both provocative and engaging.
