Chapter 1 – The Excitement of Current Space Exploration Today -- Chapter 2 – The New Space Race -- Chapter 3 – Commercial Interests in Outer Space -- Chapter 4 – Going Back to the Moon -- Chapter 5 – Mars -- Chapter 6 – Current Politics and the Space Force -- Chapter 7 – The Science and Dangers of Outer Space -- Chapter 8 – Politics and the Space Race -- Chapter 9 – The Post Apollo and the Space Shuttle Era -- Chapter 10 – Politics and the ISS -- Chapter 11 – Politics and Commercial Space Activities -- Chapter 12 – Technological Risks of Space Flight, Space Accidents. -- Chapter 13 – New Technology and Deep Space -- Chapter 14 – Future Topics in Space -- Index.

This book examines the U.S. space program’s triumphs and failures in order to assess what constitutes a successful space policy. Using NASA and the space industry’s complex history as a guide, it draws global lessons about space missions and the trends we can expect from different nations in the next decade and beyond. Space exploration has become increasingly dependent on cooperation between countries as well as the involvement of private enterprise. This book thus addresses issues such as: Given their tenuous history, can rival countries work together? Can private enterprise fill NASA’s shoes and provide the same expertise and safety standards? Written by a former NASA Aerodynamics Officer at Houston Mission Control working on the Space Shuttle program, the second edition of this book provides updated information on U.S. space policy, including the new strategy to return to the Moon prior to traveling to Mars. Additionally, it takes a look at the formation of the Space Force as a military unit, as well as the latest developments in private industry. Overall, it is a thought-provoking resource for both space industry professionals and space enthusiasts.
