  abstract: "A substantial Chronology of Events and a narrative history outline the key events and people in the progression of space research and activity. Five topical essays - including a look at the Space Shuttle - examine several significant issues related to the politics and technology of space exploration from an international perspective. These chapters elucidate several sets of documents that give shape and substance to the larger story. Primary documents in this volume are organized by theme and represent the variety of materials available to anyone seeking a better understanding of the rise of space exploration. Also included are biographical sketches of key people associated with space flight, a listing of the human space flight missions undertaken since 1961, and an annotated bibliography of additional reading."--Jacket.
