by Keegan Kimbrough, Eldorado High Sch, Albuquerque, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Engineering, Construction, and Operations in Space IV

Abstract:

The paper discusses the evolution, present state and future of space stations.

Three and a half years later, the United States launched two astronauts, Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin, who became the first men to walk on the Moon.
