Commemorating 30 years of space shuttle exploration, this beautifully crafted photography book, now in a revised format, curates the finest NASA space shuttle images into one inspirational collection. Arranged in thematic chapters ranging from launch pad through launch sequence, to the missions themselves and the dramatic conclusion of the return flight and landing, this is a fascinating photographic history of the world’s first reusable space craft.

Space Shuttle: A Photographic Journey pays tribute to the five pioneering orbiters built by NASA: Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis and Endeavour. It was developed by author Luke Wesley Price through exhaustive study of the NASA archives and painstaking post-production processing of images to enhance their visual impact, all guided by correspondence with inspirational shuttle pilots such as the late Bruce McCandless.
