The Road to Space: The Record of China's Aerospace Development

by Gang Liu and Xuanqing Li

When in 1957 the Soviet Union launched Sputnik, the first satellite, China's dream of space travel seemed to be in the far distant future. So how has the Chinese Space Program caught up so fast? Authors Li Xuanqing and Liu Gang chart China's path to the stars in great and inspiring detail, from the earliest attempts to launch a simple rocket, and up to the Moon Exploration Project and even plans in the future for Mars.
