There’s a new history of the Space Shuttle over at the NASA web site. I haven’t read it, but it’s written by Tom Heppenheimer, who’s usually pretty scrupulous in his work, and has never been much of a NASA cheerleader. So I’ll give it a qualified endorsement, for those who are interested in how the Shuttle came to be the way it is, warts and all. I do hope to getting around to reading it soon and doing an actual review.
