In den WarenkorbSoftcover. From the late 1950s, when the former USSR launched its Lunik probes, to the mid 1970s and the United States' successful manned flights to the Moon, lunar exploration was high on the superpowers' space agendas. In Lunar Exploration: Human Pioneers and Robotic Surveyors, Paolo Ulivi gives a lucid and accessible account…of man's attempts to reach the Moon. As well äs covering the well-documented manned and unmanned missions, he draws on recently declassified information to describe Chinese lunar exploration projects and how lunar nuclear weapons were developed by the superpowers in the 1950s. Since the mid 1970s, there have been few missions to the Moon but interest is once again on the increase. The United States has developed its Clementine and Lunar Prospector spacecraft, both Japan and the European Space Agency are involved in lunar missions, and there is interest from China and India, and hope that Russia will again become involved. Perhaps a new age of lunar exploration is about to begin. 363 p. many photos and illustrations very good condition, with a name label of the previous owner.

In den WarenkorbSoftcover. THE APOLLO PROGRAMME is mostly remembered for the first manned flight around the moon during Christmas 1968, the six manned landings between 1969 and 1972 and the dramatic rescue of the Apollo 13 crew in 1970. Apollo hardware was also used in the Skylab Space Station Programme during 1973 and for a joint docking missi…on with the Soviet Union in 1975. But the programme was intended to be much more far-reaching than just these few missions. From the early 1960s, plans to utilise Apollo hardware for other missions expanded into the Apollo Applications Programme. In this, extended scientific research flights in Earth orbit would complement an extensive exploration of the Moon and evolve into the first manned planetary expeditions to the planet Mars. In Apollo: The Lostand Forgotten Missions David Shayler chronicles these developments in adapting the lunar hardware to meet other objectives. In addition the unflown mission of Apollo 1, the lost moonwalks of Apollo 13 and the cancelled moon shots of Apollos 18, 19 and 20 are recalled. Apollo was not only a programme of eleven manned missions, a pioneering space Station and the beginnings of international cooperation, but also a programme of lost dreams and abandoned opportunities. 344 p. photos and illustrations very good condition, with a name sticker of the previous owner.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. The most luminous events known in the universe are gamma-ray bursts, which last from less than a second to tens of seconds. First recorded in 1973, they are among the most exciting phenomena of recent years, as they are linked to some of the fundamental topics of modern astronomy. Their origins are… still only just being understood, but it is believed that they are emitted in gigantic stellar explosions visible across the entire universe.This book provides an overview of the GRB story at research level, explaining clearly the importance of GRBs in the context of modern astrophysics and cosmology. The authors detail the discovery of GRBs and the subsequent development of our understanding, and.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. xxi, [3], 437, [3] pages. Illustrations. Formulae. Tabular Data. Notes. References. Appendices [including Chronology]. Glossary. Index. The cover has corner and other wear and soiling. Inscribed by the author on the title page. The inscription reads Bill - Welcome… to space Biz! All best wishes. Dave Doody. Name and phone number in ink on fep. Dave Doody has been interested in interplanetary space flight since at least age 6 when his father built a 16-foot tall rocket ship in the backyard for him and his neighborhood friends to "fly" among the planets. Dave came to Pasadena from Catalina Island and started working with JPL's Deep Space Network in 1982. Then he came to work at JPL with the Voyager mission in 1985. After serving post-Voyager as a member of the Magellan flight team on its Venus-mapping mission, Dave joined Cassini, and was Operations Lead for the Cassini Mission Support and Services Office. Deep Space Craft opens the door to interplanetary flight. It looks at this world from the vantage point of real operations on a specific mission, and follows a natural trail from the day-to-day working of this particular spacecraft, through the functioning of all spacecraft to the collaboration of the various disciplines to produce the results for which a spacecraft is designed. These results are of course mostly of a scientific nature, although a small number of interplanetary missions are also flown primarily to test and prove new engineering techniques. The author shows how the need for experiments and instrumentation arises, and follows the design and construction of the instruments through to their placement and testing on a spacecraft prior to launch. Examples are given of the interaction between an instrument's science team and the mission's flight team to plan and specify observations, gather and analyze data in flight, and finally present the results and discoveries to the scientific community. This focused guide to interplanetary space exploration uses many examples of previous and current endeavors. It will enable the reader to research almost any topic related to spacecraft and to seek the latest scientific findings, the newest emerging technologies, or the current status of a favorite flight. In order to provide easy paths from the general to the specific, the text constantly refers to the Appendices. Within the main text, the intent is general familiarization and categorization of spacecraft and instruments at a high level, to provide a mental framework to place in context and understand any spacecraft and any instrument encountered in the reader's experience. Appendix A gives illustrated descriptions of many interplanetary spacecraft, some earth-orbiters and ground facilities to reinforce the classification framework. Appendix B contains illustrated detailed descriptions of a dozen scientific instruments, including some ground-breaking engineering appliances that have either already been in operation or are poised for flight. Each instrument's range of sensitivity in wavelengths of light, etc, and its physical principle(s) of operation is described. Appendix C has a few annotated illustrations to clarify the nomenclature of regions and structures in the solar system and the planets' ring systems, and places the solar system in context with the local interstellar environment.

In den WarenkorbSoftcover. Almost 50 years ago, Yuri Gagarin moved the world into a new era of exploration, that of manned spaceflight. Over the next five decades and over 250 missions later, almost 500 individuals from countries around the globe have followed him into space. Yet only 27 astronauts have ventured beyond Earth orbit and then only… as far as the Moon. As we plan for a return to the Moon and onwards to Mars, it is timely to look back at these missions and review their successes and achievements, as well as their setbacks. Praxis Manned Spaceflight Log is a comprehensive guide to all the space missions, from Gagarin to the ISS and the latest Chinese Shenzhou missions. A chronological sequence of Orbital flights includes facts on the sub-orbital and ballistic flights that are a fundamental part of the quest for space. Also featured are: - a summary of manned spaceflight mission profiles and programmes - 'space' flights of the X-15 rocket plane and X-Prize winner Spaceship 1 - all manned missions to the Moon and to space stations - sub orbital manned spaceflights - accidents, aborts and abandoned missions This book is an invaluable companion to the range of manned spaceflight books from Springer-Praxis. 829 p. many photos very good condition, with a namesticker of the previous owner.

In den WarenkorbSoftcover. First Edition Springer-Praxis Books in Astronomy and Space Sciences Between May 1973 and February 1974 three teams of astronauts increased the American space endurance record from 14 days, set in 1965, to three months aboard the Skylab space station in missions lasting 28, 59 and 84 days. American astronauts did not s…urpass these records for over 20 years until the NASA Mir missions began in 1995. Skylab evolved from plans to use Apollo lunar hardware for extended scientific missions in Earth orbit, becoming a platform for research in solar science, stellar astronomy, space physics, earth resources, life and material sciences. Skylab was where Americans first learned the skill of truly living and working in space, even offering students the chance to fly their own experiments on a manned spacecraft. In Skylab - America's Space Station, David Shayler chronicles the evolution of the Station, its infrastructure on the ground including astronaut training, each of the three manned missions, summary of results, achievements and the lessons learned. The creation of the International Space Station is the real legacy of Skylab äs American astronauts once again embark on extended missions around the Earth. 375 p. many photos and illustrations very good condition, with a name label of the previous owner.
