Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: very good. First Printing [Stated]. x, [2], 355, [1] pages. Illustrations. Notes. Name Index. Subject Index. DJ has slight wear and soiling. James Edward Oberg (born November 7, 1944), often known as Jim Oberg, is an American space journalist and historian, regarded as…an expert on the Russian and Chinese space programs. He had a 22-year career as a space engineer in NASA specializing in orbital rendezvous. Oberg is an author of ten books and more than a thousand articles on space flight. After service in the United States Air Force, he joined NASA in 1975, where he worked until 1997 at Johnson Space Center on the Space Shuttle program. He worked in the Mission Control Center for several Space Shuttle missions from STS-1 on, specializing in orbital rendezvous techniques. This culminated in planning the orbit for the STS-88 mission, the first International Space Station (ISS) assembly flight. During the 1990s, he was involved in NASA studies of the Soviet space program, with particular emphasis on safety aspects; these had often been covered up or downplayed, and with the advent of the ISS and the Shuttle-Mir programs, NASA was keen to study them as much as possible. In Star-Crossed Orbits, space veteran James Oberg combines riveting personal memoir with top-notch investigative journalism to tell the untold story of the U.S.-Russian space alliance. With unparalleled access to official Russian archives, facilities, and key individuals associated with the Russian space program, he describes the strengths and weaknesses that each side brings to the table. And he reveals for the first time the full story of Russia's decaying space program and how it ultimately was saved from collapse by Western funds. Oberg's basic theme is that the U.S.-Russia "relationship has evolved into new patterns of mutual misunderstanding" based primarily on the ineptitude, naiveté and desperation of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and on the Russians' propensity to mislead and even extort their U.S. partners. The book reviews Soviet and Russian achievements in human spaceflight. Oberg focuses on Mir's problems and lambastes NASA for ignoring safety risks.
