Críticas: ..."a book which should fascinate and stimulate the next generation of physics students. Written with an almost naive simplicity, yet back up at every stage with an explanation of the basic physics and technology. Allday examines not only how NASA reached the Moon in 1969, but the viability of all the subsequent proposals for continuing the journey on to Mars and beyond. He explains with startling clarity that manned bases on mars, which has a similar day/night cycle to Earth's are much more practical than on the Moon." Astronomy Now "Written in a friendly and informal style, this very readable book will serve as an excellent introduction to astronautics for teenagers/school students interested in space, science teachers and general science readers.
