The Space Barons: Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and the Quest to Colonize the Cosmos (Paperback)

6,500.00

The visionary quest to rekindle the human exploration and colonization of space led by two rivals and their vast fortunes, egos, concern about the future of humanity, and visions of space as the next entrepreneurial frontier

For years, space enthusiasts have imagined people in spaceships colonizing the cosmos, and for more than four decades, US presidents have been predicting a real-life journey to Mars. Little progress, however, has been made since the halcyon days of the Mercury and Apollo programs–until now. Chris Davenport tells the story of the “Space Barons”–notably Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, but also Richard Branson and Paul Allen–and their unbelievably big ambitions to revive the US manned space program and reignite ancient dreams.
