In addition to providing a policy and institutional history of this major NASA mission, "This new ocean" presents a broad chronogical outline of technological achievements at the center of the effort, the scientific studies and results of the flights, and the human drama of the astronauts, ground controllers, and government and industry officials who saw it through to completion between 1961 and 1963. One of the NASA History series, "This new ocean" is an exceptional work that informs and entertains readers seeking to understand the development of space flight in America, as well as those interested in the development of modern technology.
