With one hundred full-color photographs by
Roger Ressmeyer et al and with text by popular astronomy
writer Phil Harrington, The Space Shuttle: A
Photographic History tells the fascinating and
inspiring story of the space shuttle program from 1972
to 2003. In over a hundred missions aboard six different
shuttles, hundreds of astronauts from around the world
have conducted thousands of space experiments and
thrilled us with their orbital exploits. For the first
time, a beautiful photographic book allows the general
reader to survey the history of the space shuttle
program and be uplifted by the pioneering spirit of one
of humanity's grandest enterprises.
Formerly on
the staff of the Hayden Planetarium, Harrington now
serves as a program administrator at Brookhaven National
Laboratory. For excerpts from Phil's books and articles
