Book Description
Many of our first great space explorers were not human—they were robotic and unmanned spacecraft and satellites. The data produced by these early voyages became a foundation for much of our advances in space technology. By delving into the pages of this book, readers will learn about the technology, people, and organizations that have made fruitful unmanned space missions a reality.
