Twenty years since the first edition was published in the German
language, and just over fifty years since the launch of the
Earth's first ever artificial satellite Sputnik 1, this third
edition of the Handbook of Space Technology presents
in fully integrated colour a detailed insight into the fascinating
world of space for the first time in the English language.
Authored by over 70 leading experts from universities, research
institutions and the space industry, this comprehensive handbook
describes the processes and methodologies behind the development,
construction, operation and utilization of space systems,
presenting the profound changes that have occurred in recent years
in the engineering, materials, processes and even politics
associated with space technologies and utilization. The individual
chapters are self-contained, enabling the reader to gain a quick
and reliable overview of a selected field; an extensive reference
and keyword list helps those who wish to deepen their understanding
of individual topics.
Featuring superb, full colour illustrations and photography
throughout, this interdisciplinary reference contains practical,
hands-on engineering and planning information that will be
invaluable to those on a career path within space technology, or
simply for those of us who'd like to know more about this
fascinating industry.
Main section headings include:
* Introduction (historical overview, space missions)
* Fundamentals (orbital mechanics, aerothermodynamics/
reentry, space debris)
* Launch Vehicles (staged technologies, propulsion
systems, launch infrastructure)
* Space Vehicle Subsystems (structure, energy supply,
thermal controls, attitude control, communication)
* Aspects of Human Flight (man in space, life support
systems, rendezvous and docking)
* Mission Operations (satellite operation, control center,
ground station network)
* Utilization of Space (Earth observation, communication
navigation, space astronomy, material sciences, space medicine,
robotics)
* Configuration and Design of a Space Vehicle (mission
concept, system concept, environmental simulation, system design,
Galileo satellites)
* Management of Space Missions (project management,
quality management, cost management, space law)
