Extreme Exploration Space Exploration

This book describes a relatively unsung triumph of the Apollo program. The extreme limitation of resources available for exploring the lunar surface required the creation of an altogether new approach to science and exploration- the "Apollo Approach," also known as the "Extreme Science Approach."  This book analyses the record of Apollo and essential pre-Apollo precursor (Ranger, Surveyor, Lunar Orbiter) programs, including firsthand interviews with the people involved; recently archived training, simulation, planning documentation; and the Apollo Lunar Surface Log, to show how the missions to the Moon created a novel baseline for field exploration.
