Beyond Horizons: A Half Century of Air Force Space Leadership
Beyond Horizons: A Half Century of Air Force Space Leadership is a study of the United States Air Force in space. Of all the military services, the Air Force has been preeminently involved for the past fifty years in initiating, developing, and applying the technology of space-based systems in support of the nation's national security. Yet there has been no single-volume overview of the Air Force space story to serve as an introduction and guide for interested readers.

Groups Acting on Hyperbolic Space: Harmonic Analysis and Number Theory
This book deals with a broad range of topics from the theory of automorphic functions on three-dimensional hyperbolic space and its arithmetic group theoretic and geometric ramifications. Starting off with several models of hyperbolic space and its group of motions the authors discuss the spectral theory of the Laplacian and Selberg's theory for cofinite groups. This culminates in explicit versions of the Selberg trace formula and the Selberg zeta-function.
From a space shuttle fashioned out of a lemonade carton and felt to a Mars rover made from a cereal box and juice cans, the variety of imaginative projects in this resource can be built with simple everyday classroom and household items. Surrounding these activities are fun facts, illustrations, and related information on each space topic—all of which meets curriculum standards for early elementary science. For young students, their families, and teachers, this expedition through the galaxy is a perfect method for introducing astronomy...
Ranging in topics from the best gun to kill armored space monsters to particle physics to cosmology to health and beauty tips, Vorpal Blade is a return to the "good old days" of SF when the science problems were intractable and the beasts were ugly. The monkeys are out in the space lanes and ready to rock. As soon as they get another roll of duct tape.
