This book presents information and photographs of launch complexes, research and development facilities, laboratories, test sites, and manufacturing centers, along with other relics of the first fifteen years of the space age in America. At the same time, it shows the relationship between photographs and time--how photographs taken in the past gather significance into the future. Along with the photographs, this book includes historical essays by field experts. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
