Description
Space Exploration Past, Present, Future explores humanity's journey into space, from its early beginnings to our current ambitions. Carolyn Collins Petersen examines the technological advances that have led us to this point, including the impact of World War I on rocketry and the increasing corporate interest in space exploration.
The book considers our potential future in space, with a focus on Mars as a key destination. It also delves into current scientific possibilities, such as matter/antimatter annihilations and ion propulsion, and explores the concept of the Alcubierre Warp Drive.
