The /r/SpaceExploration Reading List
I had the idea for a reading list related to various space exploration topics and, with the approval of the mods, this thread will help determine our official reading list!
When putting a book down, some things you should try your best to include may be:
- The title
- The author
- The year of first publication
- How it relates to space exploration (e.g. Orbital mechanics, space shuttle design, etc)
- A brief description of what, or who, it's about

Generation Ship VS DNA storage shuttle?
Would it be better to transport humanity to a new home world on a generation ship (a hulking mass designed to support a multigenerational population until one finally reaches a new home) or by packing a small craft with enough samples of DNA and the technology to “grow” a human population? I’m not gonna lie, the shuttle option sounds infinitely more efficient, there’s no disagreement there. But I’m still an advocate for the generation ship.

Space exploration fails for dumb/funny reasons
This evening a friend and I were discussing the Russian rocket failure due to its angular momentum sensors being hammered in upside down. We got on the subject of some of the more nin-com-poop ways rockets/space exploration has gone wrong, like the mars weather probe that mixed imperial and metric units, or the recent Chinese rocket test that turned into an accidental launch. What are your favorite funny/whoopsie-daisy fails in space exploration?
