“A dynamic biography of a remarkable scientific figure. . . . Fans of scientific history and those just looking for a fascinating new read are in for a treat.” —Foreword Reviews

The world will always remember Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin for their first steps on the moon, yet few today hold in respect the sites that made these and other astronauts’ journeys possible. The Final Mission explores these key locations, including the footprints and items left on the moon, and calls for the urgent preservation of this space heritage.

“Willy Ley has been a mystery among spaceflight historians for many years. His role as science writer, advocate, and popularizer is known to many but understood by few. This book unpacks that story.” —Roger D. Launius, associate director of collections and curatorial affairs, National Air and Space Museum
