The first part of this book describes exploration in waterborne sailing ships, then moves quickly into details of the space vehicle propulsion, and as the authors point out space sailing is "free" . there is also discussion on advanced space vehicle propulsion system such as nuclear, solar electric, nuclear electric and Anti-matter rockets. The second part of the book describes various Sail systems using either sunlight or the "solar wind". The fourth section of the book goes into details of space sailing technology for the more technical reader. – Paraphrasing the dust jacket Full number line. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

New York: Copernicus Book, Date: 2008. Hardcover. Very fine in same jacket in mylar. Please see photos.. Quarto in black and orange illus jacket; xiv, 253 pages, 8 unnumbered pages of plates; bibliographical references and index. "Solar sailing is a topic of growing popular and media interest. Solar sail propulsion will make space exploration more affordable and offer access to destinations within (and beyond) the solar system that are currently beyond our reach. This book describes solar sails, how they work and what they will be used for in the exploration of space in an easily readable manner which does not necessitate any prior knowledge of physics or solar sailing. It discusses current plans for solar sails and also describes how advanced technology, such as nanotechnology, might enhance solar-sail performance. Much has been accomplished recently to make solar sail technology very close to becoming an engineering reality and it will soon be used by the world's space agencies in the exploration of the solar system and beyond. The book has four parts, each with multiple chapters which, in turn, contain some references and suggested further reading. Parts 1 - 3 are non-mathematical, while Part 4 contains more detailed technical information." âPublisher. / Contents: Space Engines Past and Present -- An Historical Introduction to Space Propulsion -- The Rocket: How It Works in Space -- Rocket Problems and Limitations -- Non-Rocket In-Space Propulsion -- The Solar-Sail ...
