ShuttleMightabeen0001

Published in 1971, before Apollo had flown its final missions, by Golden Gate Junior Books of San Carlos, California. Written by Don Dwiggins and illustrated with art from assorted aerospace contractors who were bidding to build the next generation American spacecraft. This is why the configuration of the vehicles and the style of the illustrations changes from page to page. The artists are not credited, just the firms they worked for.

 

A nostalgic look back, at the Space Shuttle and Space Station that we could have had, but for the bean-counters and internationalists in DC.
