Two hundred color photographs and drawings accompany the comprehensive text in this homage to the American manned spaceflight program. Encompassing both the people and the technology behind each NASA mission, the book chronicles America’s program of scientific space exploration as it explores a variety of relevant topics from space vehicles to space equipment and the future in space.

This treasure-trove of NASA’s manned spaceflight missions is a must for all space enthusiasts, history buffs, and devotees of both science and art.

Highly recommended. (
