Gebundene Ausgabe, Großformat. Seit Jahrhunderten haben die Menschen davon geträumt, in den Weltraum zu reisen, aber erst seit jüngster Zeit verfügen wir über die Technik, die es uns erlaubt, andere Welten als unsere eigene zu erkunden. Am 12. April 1961 überwand der sowjetische Kosmonaut Jurij Gagarin als erster Mensch die Schwerkraft der Erde. Die bemannte Raumfahrt wurde Wirklichkeit. Acht Jahre später, 1969, landeten Neil Armstrong und Buzz Aldrin auf dem Mond. Dieses Buch hält Rückschau auf die verblüffenden Leistungen der vergangenen Jahre und schildert Höhepunkte der bisherigen Entwicklung. Es beschreibt, was sich heute in der Welt der Raumfahrt abspielt: wie ein Astronaut ausgebildet wird, wie sich das Leben an Bord einer Raumstation gestaltet, wie Raketen und Raumsonden arbeiten. Es lädt zu einer phantastischen Reise in die Zukunft ein, einer Reise, die den Menschen auf den Mond, zum Mars und darüber hinaus führen wird. 96 p. zahlreiche farbige Abbildungen sehr gut erhalten, mit einem Inventar-Aufkleber des Vorbesitzers.

Hardcover. Condición: Good. On offer is a terrific, original 1907 handwritten diary and journal of Susie C. Staples of Topeka, Kansas. This book, hand dated by the author, has over 300 entries for the year. The diary is a wonderful bit of western Americana as it provides a detailed inner look at this mature young [28 y/o at writing] woman's life is like in early 20th century Kansas and is also a super travel diary of an extended mid-western road trip. Susie worked for the Santa Fe Railway in Topeka, Kansas apparently as a senior clerk working on foreign account records, passenger records, training other clerks, etc., but she doesn't go into great detail. She is an ideal diarist starting with mention of that day's weather and a synopsis of her day and evening, mentioning names of calls and visitors and local historians and collectors will find a wealth of local history and genealogy. For transportation she still used a horse & buggy but also used the electric car and many trains to get around. At one time there is an entry that their horse got scared by an auto & fell & hurt his knees quite badly - the vet was called a day or so later and said not to use him for 10 days. They played a lot of Flinch after dinner, sewed, shopped, went to parties, Church, visited relatives constantly, she sometimes quotes what was served for dinner, it seems someone in her family was always taking a train somewhere, she mentions illness, redecorating of their home, attending parades and other amusements, and much, much more. Here are some snippets: Wed. Jan 2 - .Terrible wreck on Railroad only 43 miles west of Topeka this A.M. at 5:00. 30 persons killed. One a colored porter was killed, lived just back of us. Thurs.
