MAN AND THE SPACE FRONTIER by G. Harry Stine

MAN AND THE SPACE FRONTIER

By

Publisher: Knopf

The problems that beset man in space are presented here in simple language with clear, explanatory illustrations. Problems such as pressure, extreme temperatures, rocket noises beyond human tolerance, cosmic radiation, and the psychological challenges of space travel are explained and their solutions discussed. The book is simple enough to answer the basic questions of space-tyros and it covers the more complicated aspects of the subject for advanced readers.
