Militarizing Outer Space
Angebote / Angebote:
Concentrating on violence, weapons and warfare in outer space, Militarizing Outer Space explores the dark side of post-war astroculture. While outer space has predominantly been a site of utopian thinking and drawn upon prospects of peaceful expansion, the development of modern space technology was equally grounded in dystopian and violent scenarios that had a lasting impact on revolutionizing ideas of future warfare. Highlighting the militarization of extraterrestrial frontiers and conquests in politics and culture, Embattled Heavens examines the ways in which promises and threats were intertwined in the legitimization and popularization of spaceflight during the second half of the twentieth century.
