Item description from seller

The format is approximately 6.25 by 9.25 inches. This is one of the America in Space series (third). 144 pages. Illustrated cover. Illustrated endpaper. Illustrations (some in color). Tabular Data. Chronology. No dust jacket present. Reichl studied business administration and graduated with a diploma. He worked for Airbus, where he was responsible for the marketing of rocket engines. He initially wrote books and articles on the subject of space travel alongside his work. He eventually became a freelance author. In addition to his writing and journalistic work, Reichl gives popular science lectures on space travel and contributes to the blogs SciLogs and Der Orion. The moon landing remains the most astonishing and impressive accomplishment of manned space travel to this day. In July 1969, just eight years after President John F. Kennedy announced the bold plan, the first astronaut set foot on another celestial body. While Project Apollo: The Early Years covered the exciting developments from the first project drawings to the unmanned first flight of the mighty Saturn V, this book covers the later years of the Apollo era, in all its fascinating detail, including the test flights in Earth’s orbit; the first orbits of the moon; the legendary Apollo 11 mission; the drama of Apollo 13; and Apollo 17, the last manned moon flight in 1972. Experience this era through exciting accounts, radio transcripts, and impressive photographs and diagrams. Presumed First U. S. Edition, First printing [Originally published in Germany in 2014].…
