Description
As the Earth's population grows and migrates, air and space travel as we currently know it will have to change to meet the requirements of a new society. This book looks at the possibilities and probabilities of future air and space travel. It reports on the latest experimental research, including up-to-date artists' renderings, colour plates, and more than 200 figures and tables. It also details applications for these new systems and vehicles.
