Ebook: Spaceflight Revolution

As a person who has been intimately involved with the manned and unmanned United States space programs I believe Mr. Ashford's new book "Spaceflight Revolution" to be just that, a revolutionary perspective on the future of spaceflight.

Spaceflight Revolution is both pragmatic and scientifically sound. If a fraction of the funding devoted to the aging U.S. Shuttle fleet were spent on the development of a Spaceplane Mr. Ashford's vision of a new, relatively low cost access to space for the normal citizen is within the grasp of this generation.

David Ashford takes the reader step by step through the history of spaceplane development, into the feasibility, safety, Market, and design of these amazing spacecraft.

With over 40 years of hands on experience with designing spaceplanes, Mr. Ashford does a credible job of bringing together the economics and design logic for why spaceplanes are the future of manned spaceflight.

Much like the call from President John F. Kennedy, to safely send and return a man to the moon with a decade, "Spaceflight Revolution" breaths life into the dream of routine civilian access to space, within our lifetime.

Mr. Ashford is truly a visionary the Wilbur & Orville Wright of spaceplane flight. I highly recommend "Spaceflight Revolution" to any person interested in the future of man in space.
