- Private space projects are undergoing dynamic development
- All data, all facts at a glance
This title deals with the currently extremely dynamic topic of private space flight. While in the first decades of the space age almost all projects were government programmes, a paradigm shift is now underway. Companies such as SpaceX and Virgin Galactic have already achieved cult status in the scene. Projects such as the manned Dragon capsule, the Lynx from XCOR and the space station modules from Bigelow Aerospace are widely discussed even in the serious media. This volume presents all relevant projects in private space flight.
The author Eugen Reichl was a long-time employee of a major international manufacturer of launch vehicles and space flight propulsion systems. He is the author of numerous highly regarded publications on space flight and space flight history.
