Space exploration: all that matters

David Ashford looks back at the story of space exploration, identifying the factors that were a driving force behind the eye-catching programmes of the Cold War, and showing how new driving forces are now needed. Using his own extensive experience as a practitioner and researcher of space exploration Ashford then outlines a new, realistic roadmap for achieving the new space age soon and at an affordable cost.
