Description

Buckle up and prepare for liftoff as you travel back in time for a fascinating look at how The New York Times reported on the moon, rockets, Sputnik, astronauts and — stop the presses! — canal-building Martians. This anthology chronicles the history of space, as told through the pages of The Times. The updated edition includes a brand-new introduction and exclusive photography uncovered in the Times archives.

From liftoff to splashdown, The New York Times has been on the forefront of space coverage. In 1919, The Times devoted an entire page to a single image of the sun: "The Latest and Most Remarkable Photograph of the Sun." A year later, the newspaper provided front-page coverage to Professor Robert H. Goddard's stunning theory, "Believes Rocket Can Reach Moon."

Packed with more than 85 reprinted Times pages, "History of Space" retraces man’s early fascination with the heavens and all the key moments in space exploration with as-it-happened reporting, including the launching of Sputnik, John Glenn's first orbit of Earth and man's historic first steps on the moon. Read original reporting on the Viking, Voyager, Pathfinder, Hubble Telescope, Challenger, James Webb Telescope and much, much more.

An epic gift for space enthusiasts, this beautiful book measures 10.5" x 13.25" and has a velvety soft, imitation leather cover with library binding. The cover art and lettering is stamped in matte silver foil. For an extra personalized touch, you can add a custom message on the cover for a gift recipient. It is custom made in Vermont.
