Where No Man Has Gone Before: A History of NASA's Apollo Lunar Expeditions
The book, Where No Man Has Gone Before A History of Apollo Lunar Exploration Missions, written by William David Compton, is a source of abundant and plentiful information on the behind the scenes actions of the Apollo program. William David Compton provides the reader with intricate accuracy of the events following the startup of the Apollo missions and the underlying problems and concerns that would inflict and shape the development of these missions. These problems would include such things as science versus engineering, cost and profit of the Apollo missions, national prestige and much more. This book explained and traced the challenges of both scientists and engineers who were both involved in the Apollo Missions themselves. Among the big picture of this informative book, such technology, equipment, complex machines, facilities, and maneuvers were implemented to provide specific knowledge to increase the intricacy of the already known knowledge to the reader. The organization of events that would be laid out helped to simplify the coming of events for a complex timeline. Thus meaning that it was intended to have the first half of the book leading up to the Apollo missions and then focusing on the further missions that would carry on to the 70's. Not only does the author provide information of the Apollo missions and the events that occurred within the walls, but also helps to explain the effects of Apollo on the nation, both good and bad. This important reflection allows for an expanse of knowledge outside of the space program itself. An important topic discussed was that of the Soviet Union versus the United States. Without this pre context, we would have not known the soul reason for the Apollo missions themselves. This is just another example of the way the author expands knowledge and informs the reader. For ones who are fascinated by the impacts of the Apollo program and have a passion for science exploration, this book will satisfy both.
