Rocket Dreams How the Space Age Shaped Our Vision of a World Beyond
New York: Free Press. New in New dust jacket. 2003. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 0743233433 . New book unmarked in crisp barely rubbed DJ. ; 0.93 x 8.73 x 5.95 Inches; 242 pages; <P> In 1958 mankind's centuries-long flirtation with space flight became a torrid love affair. For a decade tens of millions of people were enraptured -- first by the U.S.-Soviet race to the moon and finally as America outstripped its rival by Project Apollo alone. It is now more than three decades since the last man walked on the moon.more time than between the first moonwalk and the beginning of World War II. Apollo did not as had been promised by a generation of visionaries herald the beginning of the Space Age but its end. <P> Or did it Project Apollo like a cannonball reached its apogee and returned to earth but the trajectory of that return was complex. America's atmosphere -- its economic scientific and cultural atmosphere -- made for a very complicated reentry that produced many solutions to the trajectory problem. <I>Rocket Dreams</I> is about those solutions.about the places where the space program landed. <P> In <I>Rocket Dreams</I> an extraordinarily talented young writer named Marina Benjamin will take you on a journey to those landing sites. A visit with retired astronauts at a celebrity autograph show is a starting point down the divergent paths taken by the pioneers including Edgar Mitchell founder of the "church" of Noëtic Sciences. Roswell New Mexico is a landing site of a different order the "magnetic north" of UFO belief in the United States -- a belief that began its most dramatic growth precisely at the time that the path of the space program began its descent. <P> In the vernacular the third law of motion states that what goes up must come down. Thus the tremendous motive force that energized the space program didn't just vanish; it was conserved and transformed making bestsellers out of fantasy literature spawning Gaia and giving symbolism to the environmental movement. Everything from the pop cultural boom in ufology to the worldwide Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence SETI feeds on the energy given off by America's leap toward space. <P> <I>Rocket Dreams</I> is an eloquent tour of this Apollo-scarred landscape. It is also an introduction to some of the most fascinating characters imaginable: Some long dead like the crackpot visionary Alfred Lawson who saw in space flight a new stage of human evolution "Alti-Man" or Robert Goddard the father of rocketry whose workshop in Roswell stands only half a mile from shops selling posters of alien visitors. Others are very much alive -- like Stewart Brand creator of the <I>Whole Earth Catalog</I> and partner with Gerard O'Neill in the drive to build free-floating space colonies and SETI astronomer Seth Shostak who has spent decades listening to the skies hoping for the first contact with another intelligent species. Perceptive original and wonderfully written informed by history science and an acute knowledge of popular culture <I>Rocket Dreams</I> is a brilliant book by a remarkable talent. .
