The space barons : Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and the quest to colonize the cosmos

Books, Manuscripts
The visionary quest to rekindle the human exploration and colonisation 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 colonising 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 programmes - until now.
