Spacecraft 2000 to 2100 AD Terran Trade Authority Handbook

Has minor wear to the dust jacket. All the pages are intact with no wear or tear.

Here at last is the comprehensive, all-color guide to the major spacecraft of the last century, 2,000-2,100 AD, the time of the great advances in space technology that followed the first, hesitant steps of the late 1900s.

Primarily an identification manual, it examines the forty major types of craft operating during the period, including those of the inhabited systems of Alpha and Proxima Centauri, giving details of their development and operational history, and charts of their technical specifications. The book is divided into sections covering Military, Civil and Commercial, and Special Function, and the craft range from sleek interceptors through specialised research vessels to private yachts, while there is also a small section of unidentified space vehicles discovered under various circumstances, and still shrouded with mystery.
