We really admire the thorough work that went into this volume, with regards to both historical and technical accuracy. The encyclopaedic vision helps readers really understand that without launchers there would be no getting into space.
In addition to information about different launch vehicle systems, readers will learn about the spaceport in Kourou, other launch sites across the world, and many other fascinating facts. For non-German speakers, it is an opportunity to browse through hundreds of archive images and exclusive graphics.
