To quote Sir Harold Spencer Jones, The Astronomer Royal, from his Foreword : " To conquer space would be an achievement surpassing anything that man has yet accomplished : the greater therefore is the challenge. There are those who are prepared to accept the challenge, and who can say that they will not succeed? This book shows that their faith is not mere idle fancy but that there are solid grounds for believing that sooner or later success will be theirs." FREE P&P IN UK.
