摘要

The result is an intellectually stimulating, three-part compilation of both cutting-edge, scholarly research and unique perspectives of actual participants in memorable events related to rocketry and spaceflight. Jacques Villain recounting the race to the Moon between the Soviet Union and the United States, a quintet of authors reviewing the conservation of German World War II rockets at England's Aerospace Museum in Cosford, and Bruno Augenstein revealing how interaction between RAND and North American Aviation's Aerophysics Laboratory benefited the Navaho missile program in the early 1950s.
