Ignition! is the inside story of the Cold War era search for a rocket propellant that could be trusted to take man into space. A favorite of Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk, listeners will want to tune into this “really good book on rocket[s],” available for the first time in audio.
Ignition! is the story of the search for a rocket propellant which could be trusted to take man into space. This search was a hazardous enterprise carried out by rival labs who worked against the known laws of nature, with no guarantee of success or safety.
Acclaimed scientist and sci-fi author John Drury Clark writes with irreverent and eyewitness immediacy about the development of the explosive fuels strong enough to negate the relentless restraints of gravity. The resulting volume is as much a memoir as a work of history, sharing a behind-the-scenes view of an enterprise that eventually took men to the moon, missiles to the planets, and satellites to outer space. A classic work in the history of science, listeners will want to get their hands on this influential classic, available for the first time in decades.

An explosive tail that doesn’t drag.

I never thought reading about chemistry was this entertaining!

A long time favorite among chemistry enthusiasts in written form, traditionally difficult to find a copy since it was from 1972. Surprised to see it in audio form finally. It’s a lot of fun when describing things that can go BOOM, but it does have a bunch of equations too along the way - something much easier to skim over in written form if you aren’t a chem person. Anyway, will download!

P.S. Asimov wrote the Forward, otherwise the book is all John Clark’s.
