Note:
Variant "Going Into Space" is the US title of the 1st ed.
Variant "Into Space" (1971) is a US revised edition: (quoting KirkusReviews.com) with new chapters on space stations and "harvests of space" (benefits incurred from space exploration to date).
Synopsis:
"Rare in juvenile, or indeed any, non-fiction is writing that is at once clear, simple and precise. Arthur C. Clarke's adaptation of his space studies for young readers is therefore trebly welcome.
... easily the best of the countless recent introductions to spaceflight intended for young people or hitherto unindoctrinated adults."
--H. H. Holmes in "For Boys and Girls: Science Facts" New York Herald Tribune 1954-11-28 pE16 (brief review of the Harper ed., Going Into Space)
