PART I: MANAGING PLANETARY SCIENCE -- Homer Newell and the Origins of Planetary Science in the United States; J.D.Ruley -- The Survival Crisis of the U.S. Solar System Exploration Program; J.M.Logsdon -- The Rise and Demise of NASA's 'Faster, Better, Cheaper' Approach to Planetary Exploration; A.P.Kaminski -- PART II: DEVELOPING NEW APPROACHES TO PLANETARY EXPLORATION -- Redefining Celestial Mechanics in the Space Age: Astronomy, Astrodynamics, Deep-Space Navigation, and the Pursuit of Accuracy; A.J.Butrica -- Big Science in Space: Viking, Cassini, and the Hubble Space Telescope; W.H.Lambright -- Visual Imagery in Solar System Exploration; P.J.Westwick -- Returning Scientific Data to Earth: The Parallel but Unequal Careers of Genesis and Stardust and the Problem of Sample Return to Earth; R.D.Launius -- PART III: EXPLORING THE TERRESTRIAL PLANETS -- Planetary Science and the 'Discovery' of Global Warming; E.M.Conway -- Exploring Planet Earth: The Development of Satellite Remote Sensing for Earth Science; A.K.Johnston -- Venus-Earth-Mars: Comparative Climatology and the Search for Life in the Solar System; R.D.Launius -- Missions to Mars: Reimagining the Red Planet in the Age of Spaceflight; R.Markley -- PART IV: UNVEILING THE OUTER SOLAR SYSTEM -- Parachuting onto Another World: The EuropeAn Space Agency's Huygens Mission to Titan; A.Russo -- Pluto: The Problem Planet and its Scientists; D.A.DeVorkin -- Transcendence and Meaning in Solar System Exploration; W.E.Burrows.

From the beginning of the Space Age the United States, followed soon by other nations, began an impressive effort to learn about the planets of the solar system. The data collected and analyzed by scientists has revolutionized understanding of our neighbors. These efforts also captured the imagination of people from all backgrounds like nothing else except the Apollo lunar missions. Through a succession of analytical essays on major aspects of the history of robotic planetary exploration, this book opens new vistas in the understanding of the development of planetary science in the Space Age.
