Detailing the last 50 years of the Canadian space science program, this extensive history explores everything from the aurora borealis studies of the late 1950s to the current Radarsat-1 and Canada’s involvement with the NASA Phoenix mission. The people behind the country’s spacecraft and programs and the long-overdue development of the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) are thoroughly discussed as well as the parallel growth of the Canadian space program and the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR). Never-before-published information on the ISIS-II satellite is also included.
