These volumes delve into the world of space exploration: its early motivations and milestones; pioneering feats of rocket science and spacecraft design; the launching of satellites and manned spacecraft; and the rewards that space flight have had for scientific research, telecommunications, meteorology, and navigation. Features include: Aligns with science and social studies curriculum standards as well as Common Core standards for science and technical subjects. Detailed Table of Contents, stunning full-color photographs, and fascinating sidebars.
