    About this audiobook

    No longer the exclusive domain of government entities such as NASA and other national agencies, space exploration is rapidly becoming privatized, with entrepreneurial startups building huge rocket boosters, satellites, rocket engines, asteroid probes, prospecting craft, and even commercial lunar cargo landers to open this new frontier. Research into ever more sophisticated propulsion and life support systems will soon enable the journey to Mars and destinations deeper in our solar system. As these technologies continue to move forward, there are virtually no limits to human spaceflight and robotic exploration.

    While the world has waited since the Apollo lunar program for the next "giant leap," these critical innovations, most of which are within our grasp with today's technology, will change the way we live, both in space and on Earth. A new space age-and with it, a new age of peace and prosperity on Earth, and settlement beyond our planet-can be ours.

    Speaking with key leaders of the latest space programs and innovations, Pyle shares the excitement and promise of this new era of exploration and economic development. From NASA and the Russian space agency Roscosmos, to emerging leaders in the private sector, Space 2.0 examines the new partnerships that are revolutionizing spaceflight and changing the way we reach for the stars.

      I found this book to be very informative. It does a good job of putting together everything that has happened in the space industry and how it has grown to become very common place. Up-to-date and current with its information, this book is a must read for anyone that is a space enthusiast or an industry insider.
    • 3/5
      Very short and mostly cheerleading but serves as a shot of optimism anyone could use.
