Liftoff: Careers in Satellite, the World’s First and Most Successful Space Industry

by Daniel Fryer, Robert Bell (Editor), Tamara Bond (Editor)

There is a lot of talk these days about the space business. It may be about new and cheaper ways to launch rockets. Or maybe it's about space planes like SpaceshipOne, spaceports being built in the desert, or space tourism and space hotels. It's all good stuff. But when it comes to real business in space, there is only the satellite business. It's the only one that makes money today and has been making money for decades. If the satellite business sounds like an interesting place to start a career, you're in the right place. In the pages of Liftoff, you can learn about the industry, the kind of careers it offers, the qualifications they require, and the best ways to get a career started.
