Book Synopsis The History of Human Space Flight by : Ted Spitzmiller
Download or read book The History of Human Space Flight written by Ted Spitzmiller and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2017-02-21 with total page 693 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military Writers Society of America Awards, Gold Medal for History Highlighting men and women across the globe who have dedicated themselves to pushing the limits of space exploration, this book surveys the programs, technological advancements, medical equipment, and automated systems that have made space travel possible. Beginning with the invention of balloons that lifted early explorers into the stratosphere, Ted Spitzmiller describes how humans first came to employ lifting gasses such as hydrogen and helium. He traces the influence of science fiction writers on the development of rocket science, looks at the role of rocket societies in the early twentieth century, and discusses the use of rockets in World War II warfare. Spitzmiller considers the engineering and space medicine advances that finally enabled humans to fly beyond the earth's atmosphere during the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union. He recreates the excitement felt around the world as Yuri Gagarin and John Glenn completed their first orbital flights. He recounts triumphs and tragedies, such as Neil Armstrong's "one small step" and the Challenger and Columbia disasters. The story continues with the development of the International Space Station, NASA's interest in asteroids and Mars, and the emergence of China as a major player in the space arena. Spitzmiller shows the impact of space flight on human history and speculates on the future of exploration beyond our current understandings of physics and the known boundaries of time and space.

Book Synopsis Autonomous Vehicles by : Steven Van Uytsel
Download or read book Autonomous Vehicles written by Steven Van Uytsel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book aims to address challenges facing the deployment of autonomous vehicles. Autonomous vehicles were predicted to hit the road by 2017. Even though a high degree of automation may have been achieved, vehicles that can drive autonomously under all circumstances are not yet commercially available, and the predictions have been adjusted. Now, experts even say that we are still decades away from fully autonomous vehicles. In this volume, the authors form a multidisciplinary team of experts to discuss some of the reasons behind this delay. The focus is on three areas: business, technology, and law. The authors discuss how the traditional car manufacturers have to devote numerous resources to the development of a new business model, in which the sole manufacturing of vehicles may no longer be sufficient. In addition, the book seeks to introduce how technological challenges are creating a shift toward connected autonomous vehicles. Further, it provides insight into how regulators are responding to the insufficiently tested technology and how lawyers try to answer the liability question for accidents with these autonomous vehicles.

Book Synopsis Disasters and Accidents in Manned Spaceflight by : Shayler David
Download or read book Disasters and Accidents in Manned Spaceflight written by Shayler David and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2000-05-17 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, Dave Shayler examines the hurdles faced by space crews as they prepare and embark on space missions. Divided into six parts, the text opens with the fateful, tragic mission of the Challenger crew in 1986. This is followed by a review of the risks that accompany every space trip and the unique environment in which the space explorer lives and works. The next four sections cover the four parts of any space flight (training, launch, in-flight and recovery) and present major historical incidents in each case. The final section looks at the next forty years beyond the Earth's atmosphere, beginning with the International Space Station and moving on to the difficulties inherent in a manned exploration of Mars.

Book Synopsis Technical Proposal for Manned Multi Modular Spacecraft (Project MALLAR) by : CONRAD. GODWIN LAU (ROBERT.)
Download or read book Technical Proposal for Manned Multi Modular Spacecraft (Project MALLAR) written by CONRAD. GODWIN LAU (ROBERT.) and published by Apogee Books. This book was released on 2020 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Spring of 1961 President John Kennedy challenged his country to place humans on the moon and return them to Earth by the end of the decade. It seemed an audacious proposal to outside observers, but also to the heads of the two-year old National Aeronautics and Space Agency.What had been lost in the political cloud and excitement surrounding the President's challenge was the fact that there were people in the aerospace community, outside of NASA, who were sure that a manned mission to the moon was possible within ten years, and they had known this since at least 1958, when NASA didn't even exist. These enthusiastic advocates included the German rocket scientists working for the Army under Wernher von Braun; a team of military engineers working for the U.S. Air Force under General Bernard Schriever; and a team of engineers working under Conrad Lau at the Vought Aircraft Astronautics Division whose efforts remained largely unknown. Between the Spring of 1958 and Christmas 1959 Lau and his team worked out the most effective way to get to the moon using the advanced rockets being proposed by von Braun's team. Following a visit by their ebullient congressman, Olin Teague, Vought's manager John Clark sent Lau's report to Abe Silverstein, head of manned space flight at NASA. Less than a month later Silverstein ordered his advanced design leader, Robert Piland, to essentially work from Lau's ideas to create a modular spacecraft system for Apollo. It would be two years later that NASA would then adopt the method resurrected by Lau to leave the main spacecraft in lunar orbit to save fuel. Only ten copies of this report were distributed - until now. Project MALLAR is the 100th book in the acclaimed Apogee Books' Space Series.
