Synopsis: This is the story of the stunning technical and scientific accomplishments over cast reaches of time and space. But more than that, this is the profoundly human story of the courage and unprecedented creativity of scientists, engineers, and administrators, most of them anonymous, who belong in the pantheon of space heroes no less than the astronauts and the cosmonauts.
