From the author that delivered Space and Our Solar System comes an all-new look at the vehicles that travel there. David Baker describes the worldwide range of civilian and military spacecraft and satellites with their origin, evolution, operation, and use. It covers everything from research and exploration to applications like communications and TV, weather, navigation, and spying. The major space powers such as the USA, Europe, Russia, Japan, and the UK are all covered in depth, as are minor players. Spacecraft and Satellites also provides information on rockets and launch vehicles used to send them on their way. This is a reference work on global space programmes and how they get where they're going.
