Description:
New York: Harper & Brothers, 1954. First Edition. Hardcover. Good/Fair. 117 pages. Illustrations. Some discoloration inside boards, DJ somewhat worn and soiled: small tears, small pieces missing at spine, small rough spot front DJ. Derived from a Kirkus review: A discussion of the outlook, probabilities and possibilities of present and future space travel--by the chairman of the British Interplanetary Society.

Coming up through history then, Mr. Clarke traces developments down to the German V-2 and the latest modern models. Turning skyward he analyzes the atmosphere, the planets and their positions in the universe, the work now going on for flight to them, and what may happen when man gets to the moon. Sir Arthur Charles Clarke, CBE, FRAS (16 December 1917 - 19 March 2008) was a British science writer,…
