Broschiertes Buch

Apollo in the Age of Aquarius

Beschreibung

In summer 1969, astronauts landed on the moon and hippie hordes descended on Woodstock¿two era-defining events that are not entirely coincidental. Neil M. Maher shows how NASA's celestial aspirations were tethered to terrestrial concerns of the time: the civil rights struggle, the antiwar movement, environmentalism, feminism, and the culture wars.
