This color, beautifully illustrated book presents, in chronological order, the most significant achievements in the Israeli history of space exploration over the past 20 years. Key trends in leading civil and military space programs—Earth observation, telecommunications, technology, manned flight, and navigation—are described. Some aspects of the space market, budget dynamics, cooperation initiatives, and policies are analyzed. Moshe Gelman's essay in the preface is oriented toward the challenges ahead. The authors hope that Israel's future projects will be successful and timely, and will accelerate the development of space technology both in Israel and around the world.
