Korolev

Autor James Harford
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 mar 1999
Das erste Buch in englischer Sprache, das das sowjetische Raumfahrtprogramm im Detail analysiert und die Geschichte seines charismatischen Begrnders Sergei Korolev erzhlt. Verfolgt wird die sowjetische Raumfahrt zwischen den drei iger und siebziger Jahren, die Korolev bis zu seinem Tod im Jahr 1966 dominierte. In eindrucksvoller Weise beschreibt der Autor den riesigen militrisch-industriell-universitren Komplex, der begabte Wissenschaftler und Ingenieure vereinigte und Pionierleistungen unter einem repressiven, technologisch rckstndigen System ermglichte.
