The Exploration of Space (First Edition)

used

Author(s): Arthur C. Clarke

Astronomy and Space | Secondhand

First published in 1951, this painstakingly-researched non-fiction book shows the depth of Clarke's expertise - he predicts the moon landings nearly two decades before they occurred, explores the potential use of satellites for communications more than ten years before Telstar 1 was put into orbit, and goes on to discuss the potential of space stations and long range orbital telescopes.

VG in G dust jacket that shows some rubbing and chipping to the ends of the spine.  Some wear to the edges of the boards.
