Descriptif

This book is not intended to tell the full story of each mission, but rather to describe the technical development of spacecraft and equipment necessary to grow the capability from a single EVA ("moonwalk") of less than three hours, to advanced missions where astronauts spent three full working days exploring their landing sites. With the aid of a Lunar Roving Vehicle, they collected a wide variety of rocks and soil, and left a range of instruments at the surface powered by a thermonuclear generator.
As interst grows in human returning to the Moon, 50 years on from those pioneering days of lunar exploration, we look again at what was accomplished at the dawn of the Space Age, spurred on by a political goal and developed as a tool for science. The Apollo era expressed the desire of humans to explore, to push through boundaries and to reach new goals. The story of the Apollo Moon missions is an expression of those achievements.
