Making sence of space

Making sence of space. During the first half of the twentieth century, Norway nurtured schools of geophysical and cosmic sciences to international prominence. In this fully illustrated volume, four historians give an account of Norwegian scientific, political and industrial development in space research and technology, covering the period from the end of the nineteenth century to the 1990s, following the development from pioneering research on the aurora until present-day's large international technological programmes. With index and references. Illustrated.
