Space Chronicles by Neil Degrasse Tyson
Neil deGrasse Tyson is a rare breed of astrophysicist, one who can speak as easily and brilliantly with popular audiences as with professional scientists. Now that NASA has put human space flight effectively on hold, Tyson’s views on the future of space travel and America’s role in that future are especially timely and urgent.
