Spies in the Sky: Surveillance Satellites in War and Peace (Springer Praxis Books)

In this book, Patrick Norris responds to the 50th Anniversary of the dawn of the Space Age â€“ the launch of Sputnik 1 â€“ with a review of the most important historical applications of space science for the benefit of the human race during that half century, focusing on the prevention of nuclear war. In developing this story Norris illuminates a little-known aspect of the Space Age, namely the military dimension.
