متن يادداشت

When one thinks of the explorers of space, one often considers the astronauts who piloted their craft to the moon in the 1960s and other astronauts and cosmonauts who followed to staff the space shuttles and space stations. However, the exploration of space did not begin in the 20th century, nor was it always conducted from spaceships. Exploring Space offers extensive coverage of human exploration into space-from ancient theory and Renaissance observations to19th-century fantasy to 20th-century achievement to the future-while recognizing the important achievements of astronomers like Galileo in obtaining accurate data and increasing public awareness and excitement for the possibilities of space exploration. Highlights include: How astronomers began to realize that Earth was only one of several planets. Native American astronomy. The U.S.-Soviet "race to the moon" in the 1960s. The challenges NASA has faced such as the explosions of the Challenger and Columbia Life on other planets: Astronomers' hints An assessment of the future of space exploration, which will likely include more unmanned missions.
