Produktinformationen zu „Apollo Mission Control / Springer Praxis Books (PDF)“

The book is dedicated to the estimated 3,000 men and women who supported the flights and tells the story from their perspective. It describes the rooms of people supporting this control center; those rooms of engineers, analysts and scientists most people never knew about. Some called it a "shrine" and some called it a "cathedral." Now it will be restored to its former glory and soon thousands will be able to view the place where America flew to the moon.

In recent years, he has written several books in the Springer-Praxis series.
