Large-format photographs of derelict NASA, Air Force, and Army space infrastructure — blockhouses, launch towers, test stands, gantries — shot over two decades, many inside secure facilities not otherwise open to photographers. Foreword by NASA Chief Historian Roger D. Launius; essays by journalist Craig Covault, astronaut Pamela Melroy, and archaeologist Beth Laura O’Leary address the preservation questions the images raise.
