OKarton. XXIX, 470 S. : Illustrationen, graph. Darst., gr.-8° Buch in guter Erhaltung, Einband sauber und nur gering lagerspurig, Seiten hell und sauber, ohne Einträge, einzelne Seiten im unteren Eckenbereich gering knickspurig, In Disasters and Accidents in Manned Spaceflight, David Shayler examines the challenges that face all… crews as they prepare and execute their missions. The book covers all aspects that make up spaceflight by a human crew - training, launch to space, survival in space and return from space - followed by a series of case histories which tell of the major incidents in each of those categories over the past 40 years. The sixth section looks at the International Space Station and how it is planned, to try and prevent, as far as possible, major incidents occuring during the lifetime of the space station, and at the difficulties facing a settlement on the Moon or Mars during the next 40 years. 0 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1200.

Gr.-8°, Pp. XVII, 232 S. : Ill., graph. Darst. This book offers a readable and accessible account of the way in which the world's plant life partly controls its own environment. Starting from the broad patterns in vegetation which have classically been seen as a passive response to climate, the authors build up from the local sc…ale - with microclimates produced by plants - to the regional and global scale. The influence of plants (both on land and in the ocean) in making clouds, haze and rain are considered, along with plant effects on the composition of greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere. Broad global feedbacks that either stabilize or destabilize the earth's environment will be explored, in the context of environmental change in the recent geological past, and in the near future. Common contentions and misconceptions about the role of vegetation or forest removal in the spread of deserts will also be considered. PB2-6 9783540324911 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 2000.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoftcover. First Edition Springer-Praxis Books in Astronomy and Space Sciences Between May 1973 and February 1974 three teams of astronauts increased the American space endurance record from 14 days, set in 1965, to three months aboard the Skylab space station in missions lasting 28, 59 and 84 days. American astronauts did not s…urpass these records for over 20 years until the NASA Mir missions began in 1995. Skylab evolved from plans to use Apollo lunar hardware for extended scientific missions in Earth orbit, becoming a platform for research in solar science, stellar astronomy, space physics, earth resources, life and material sciences. Skylab was where Americans first learned the skill of truly living and working in space, even offering students the chance to fly their own experiments on a manned spacecraft. In Skylab - America's Space Station, David Shayler chronicles the evolution of the Station, its infrastructure on the ground including astronaut training, each of the three manned missions, summary of results, achievements and the lessons learned. The creation of the International Space Station is the real legacy of Skylab äs American astronauts once again embark on extended missions around the Earth. 375 p. many photos and illustrations very good condition, with a name label of the previous owner.

Beginning with a review of the operations that led up to the… construction of the ISS - Skylab, Salyut, Mir and the Shuttle - the authors then describe the collaboration between the great space nations that led to the design and building of the ISS. A flight-by-flight description of its orbital assembly conveys the magnitude of the task. Finally, there is a look ahead to the future of the ISS and the possibility of a dream coming true - colonies in space. 395 p. many photos and illustrations very good condition, with a name label of the previous owner.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoftcover. Condizione: very good condition. First Edition Springer-Praxis Books in Space Exploration In this ground-breaking work, the doors to the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Centre (TsPK] in Russia are opened, and its facilities and its role in space flight history explained in detail for the first time to western readers.… Known as Star City, the centre is unique in the history of human space exploration but, until now, has remained essentially a closed location. With full assistance from those who organise and run the facility, and using unique photographs, first-hand Interviews and historical resources, the authors explore how Russian citizens have been selected and trained to fly in space, and how this procedure has changed over the last forty years. They also discuss the evolution of the often overlooked ground support infrastructure. Finaliy, they examine how the cosmonaut's role has changed from the pioneering days of the Gagarin era, through the demise of the Soviet Union, the cooperation in the multinational commercial and ISS programmes, and into the future and a new era of space exploration. 386 p. many photos and a fold-out plan of the Yuri Gagarin Training Center.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoftcover. First Edition Springer-Praxis Books in Astronomy and Space Sciences The US Space Shuttle, which entered service in 1981, was conceived as a reusable spacecraft providing cheap access to Iow Earth orbit, and to supersede expendable launch vehicles. In spite of the Challenger and Columbia disasters, it is arguably the m…ost successful spacecraft ever developed. The Story of the Space Shuttle explains the scientific contribution that it has made to the international space programme, focusing on the Shuttle's utility rather than its development. Each chapter is devoted to a specific type of operation, and the missions are discussed in this context. Missions to Mir, Hubble and, more recently, the Shuttle's role in the assembly of the International Space Station are described, as are the the activities leading to the resumption of operations following the loss of Columbia. The book concludes with a look at possible future concepts for a partly or totally reusable space vehicle to replace the Shuttle. With The Story of the Space Shuttle, David Harland provides the definitive work about this amazing project. 444 p. many photos very good condition, with a name label of the previous owner.

First Edition Springer-Praxis Books in Space Exploration ON 16 JUNE 1963 Soviet cosmonaut Valentine Tereshkova became the tenth person and first woman to orbit the Earth. It would be a further two decades before the second woman, also Russian, and then the first American female astrona…ut entered space. During the 1980s and 1990s over 50 females from around the world were selected for spaceflight training, with 40 achieving at least one flight. The road to space for women has been long and difficult but their commitment and contribution has been as dedicated as that of their male colleagues. The story of women in space charts the pioneering aeronautical developments of the early decades of the 20th Century to the very start of human space exploration, and on to the Shuttle and space Station era. However, the story of women in space is not just about those who fly the missions, but also of those who work on the ground, or stay at horne with the family. In Women In Space - Following Valentina David Shayler and lan Moule chronicle these missions into space, from the historic Vostok 6 in June 1963 to the tragedy of STS-107 40 years on. From the first pioneering steps, through the frustration and disappointments of the 1960s and 1970s, the triumphs and tragedies of the 1980s, to the current International Space Station Programme, women have played a crucial role in the space Programme, and this book celebrates their achievements. 410 p. many photos.

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. First Edition Springer-Praxis Books in Astronomy and Space Sciences The International Space Station Programme has made its mark in the annals of space exploration through a remarkable series of space 'firsts': the first time a partnership of nations has owned and operated a space Station the first time western agencie…s have been given access to previously-secret Russian facilities the first time training and control centres in many countries have been linked the first time traffic involving multiple spacecraft built by many countries has been coordinated the first time large-scale commercial ventures have been attempted the first time a robot has handed over to another robot in human space flight And the list is growing. As NASA Space Station Programme Manager Tommy Holloway said: "When the world looks back on the International Space Station, they will see one huge team accomplishing an incredible mission. And through integrity, trust and respecting people, no obstacle, whether technical or cultural, is preventing this world space flight team from achieving our goals." This is the story of a truly monumental project, from the dream to the reality. 392 p. many photos very good condition, with a name label of the previous owner.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoftcover. First Edition Springer-Praxis Books in Astronomy and Space Sciences For most people the Mir space Station is synonymous with calamity - a fire, collision with an unmanned Progress M-34 supply vehicle, and countless less life-threatening technical failures. Unfortunately that tends to eclipse the fact that the American… and Russian space agencies successfully co-operated on this project for six years. NASA astronauts and Russian cosmonauts worked together to overcome mechanical and engineering breakdowns, cultural differences, political crises and mistrust to contribute significantly to scientific advancement. Here is the untold story of the Shuttle-Mir Programme. Challenges of Human Space Expioration describes, in detail and in the words of the astronauts who lived aboard Mir, the major scientific achievements of the Programme. Not the least, these include lessons learned about reducing risks and stress, and the implications for the forthcoming International Space Station. If you want to look beyond the headlines of the Shuttle-Mir missions, this is the book for you. 259 p. many photos very good condition, with a name label of the previous owner.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoftcover. Condizione: excellent condition, new book. The book focuses on the design, testing and manufacture of the F-1 engine, but also covers its incorporation into the first stage of the Saturn V and in-flight record. It concludes with an examination of what might have been, if the F-1 had not been discarded, together with t…he Saturn V, at the conclusion of the Apollo program. The account draws on original documents and interviews with engineers and managers, and is illustrated by many never-before-published photographs, both colour and monochrome. The intention is for this to be the definitive account of the development of this most powerful of rocket engines. As NASA is developing an evolved version of the hydrogen-burning J-2 engine for use in the forthcoming Ares launch vehicles, the author includes development of the J-2 engine within the context of the Saturn V development, thus bringing rocket engine development up to the present and thus provide this book with a long shelf life. 266 p. many photos and illustrations.
