This space coffee table book takes a visual journey through NASA's amazing achievements, featuring 100 influential objects and 150 stunning images

Experience the breadth of NASA's extraordinary history through 100 objects that represent its progress and achievements across the decades. NASA in 100 Objects begins with the agency's origin as the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics and moves through the space race, Apollo era, rise of Earth orbital activities, International Space Station, and present-day commercial spaceflight.

Each object tells a story of human aspiration and innovation, including:

  • Robert Goddard's 1926 Liquid Fueled Rocket, the oldest surviving liquid-propellant rocket in the world
  • John Glenn's handheld Ansco camera used to take the first human-captured, color still photographs of Earth
  • An A7L Apollo spacesuit
  • Space shuttle orbiters
  • Chandra X-ray Observatory
  • Ingenuity Mars Helicopter
