Rocket Science for Earthlings
a continuing series for the gravitationally impaired. Rocket Science for Earthlings
I've searched high and low for a cheap book or good pamphlet that will provide a condensed version of the physics of spaceflight, and a bit of the history of humanity's quest for space. Those books are no longer in print, so I'll try to write my own.
