Spacefarers: How Humans Will Settle the Moon, Mars, and Beyond

byChristopher Wanjek

Spacefarers is Christopher Wanjek's science narrative of how Humans Will Settle the Moon, Mars, and Beyond. By tracing causes alongside consequences, the narrative gives readers both a grounded account and a route into the connected fields of science and technology & engineering. Throughout, the author balances an accessible narrative with the complexity needed to understand motives, constraints, and disputed interpretations. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning. Historical context and individual experience remain equally important to the book's explanation.
