For the first time, in one volume, Ben Evans with David Harland will not only tell the story of the hugely successful Voyager missions, but also that of the men and women who have devoted their entire working lives to them. Illustrated with stunning images, some in colour, they describe the missions from their conception, through their spectacular encounters with the outer planets and on to their ultimate and, as yet, unknown destination among the stars in the so-called Voyager Interstellar Mission

Ben Evans has a lifelong fascination for space exploration and the mysteries of the cosmos, together with a keen interest in writing. He published his first magazine article in the British Interplanetary Society's Spaceflight magazine in 1992, aged 15. In the years that followed, he contributed to the Magazines Spaceflight, Countdown, Astronomy Now, Sky At Night, Astronomy, Boundless and All About Space. He currently writes for AmericaSpace.com.
Evans' first foray into the world of book-writing, NASA's Voyager Missions, was published in 2003. Since then, he wrote two books about the careers of the lost shuttles Columbia and Challenger and a six-volume history of human space exploration. The first volume of this series, Escaping the Bonds of Earth, was nominated and shortlisted for the 2010 Eugene M. Emme Astronautical Award.Les informations fournies dans la section « A propos du livre » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
