PDF-[EBOOK]-Dr. Space: The Life of Wernher von Braun

Written by veteran aerospace journalist Bob Ward who spent years investigating his subject this biography presents a revealing but evenhanded portrait of the father of modern rocketry As he chronicles Werner von Brauns life Ward explodes many myths and misconceptions about the controversial genius who was a hero to some a villain to others The picture of von Braun that emerges is of a brilliant scientist with limitless curiosity and a drive to achieve his goals at almost any pricefrom developing the worlds first ballistic missile used against the Allies in World War II to helping launch the first US satellite that hurled Americans into space and the Saturn V superbooster that powered them to the moon Along the way readers are introduced to the human side of this charismatic visionary who brought the United States into the Space Age.

Neufeld, curator and space historian at the Smithsonian\'s National Air and Space Museum, delivers a brilliantly nuanced biography of Wernher von Braun. Chief rocket engineer of the Third Reich and one of the fathers of the U.S. space program, Wernher von Braun is a source of consistent fascination. Glorified as a visionary and vilified as a war criminal, he was a man of profound moral complexities, whose intelligence and charisma were coupled with an enormous and, some would say, blinding ambition. Based on new sources, Neufeld\'s biography delivers a meticulously researched and authoritative portrait of the creator of the V-2 rocket and his times, detailing how he was a man caught between morality and progress, between his dreams of the heavens and the earthbound realities of his life. A little-known yet critical part ofNASA historyLife in Space explores the many aspects andoutcomes of NASA\'s research in life sciences, a little-understood endeavor thathas often been overlooked in histories of the space agency. Maura Mackowskidetails NASA\'s work in this field from spectacular promises made during theReagan era to the major new directions set by George W. Bush\'s Vision for SpaceExploration in the early twenty-first century.At thefirst flight of NASA\'s space shuttle in 1981, hopes ran high for the shuttleprogram to achieve its potential of regularly transporting humans, cargo, andscientific experiments between Earth and the International Space Station.Mackowski describes different programs, projects, and policies initiated acrossNASA centers and headquarters in the following decades to advance research intohuman safety and habitation, plant and animal biology, and commercialbiomaterials. Mackowski illuminates these ventures in fascinating detail bydrawing on rare archival sources, oral histories, interviews, and site visits.Whilehighlighting significant achievements and innovations such as space radiationresearch and the Neurolab Spacelab Mission, Mackowski reveals frustrations--lostopportunities, stagnation, and dead ends--stemming from frequent changes inpresidential administrations and policies. For today\'s dreams of lunar outpostsor long-term spaceflight to become reality, Mackowski argues, a robust programin space life sciences is essential, and the history in this book offerslessons to help prevent leaving more expectations unfulfilled.

As he chronicles Werner von Braun\'s life, Ward explodes many myths and misconceptions about the controversial genius who was a hero to some, a villain to others. The picture of von Braun that emerges is of a brilliant scientist with limitless curiosity and a drive to achieve his goals at almost any price--from developing the world\'s first ballistic missile used against the Allies in World War II to helping launch the first U.S. satellite that hurled Americans into space and the Saturn V super-booster that powered them to the moon. Along the way readers are introduced to the human side of this charismatic visionary who brought the United States into the Space Age.
