Description In Space Shuttle Legacy: How We Did It and What We Learned, a group of highly qualified experts including historians, political scientists, public administrators, engineers, and scientists have combined to answer the question – what is the legacy of the Space Shuttle? They examine key aspects of the program, including its long history, its successes and failures, and what lessons it offers to those engaged in current or future spaceflight programs. Accessible and informative to general readers and aerospace professionals alike, Space Shuttle Legacy opens new vistas in the understanding of the Space Shuttle program and its place in the larger history of the Space Age, and of U.S. national history in the late twentieth century and early twenty-first. It is intended to serve as a catalyst for additional study in the years to come.
