内容简介：
The famed Apollo flight program (1961-1972) landed men on the Moon. The notion of a return to the Moon would include new concepts, such as the economic development of the Moon in commercial enterprises, with as importantly, the notion of such projects undertaken now by private enterprise on its own entirely or in some collaboration with Government interests. In this conundrum of complex effort, starting small, progressing in incremental stages, would be the need for early present-day planning and preparation. From Footprints to Blueprints examines, in its broadest spectrum of colors, the scope of achieving such a return to the Moon, with designs and arrangements to be made, resources required, in a return to the Moon, this time to stay.
