On July 20th, 1969 Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made Human History by being the first to walk on another world. The landing on the Moon was a dream born in our pre-history that came true by hard work, perseverance and by the firm belief that Human Beings are not meant to be limited.
The Moon landing proved that with dedication we can take what may seem to be out of reach into our very own hands.
The Space Studies Institute commemorates this monumental achievement by expressing sincere thanks to the many, many people who worked to make the Apollo program and the precursor Gemini and Mercury phases a reality.
It is our hope that the big dream continues and that the Human Breakout into Space will move ahead with a strong new generation of hard working and dedicated Engineers. And to that end SSI is proud to announce that right now we are giving away ‘the book that launched a thousand space careers’, Gerard K. O’Neill’s “The High Frontier – Human Colonies in Space” for free on all Kindle apps and devices.

The All Time Classic: Gerard K. O'Neill's The High Frontier

The All Time Classic: Gerard K. O’Neill’s The High Frontier


The High Frontier is the landmark book that asks (and answers) the question that has been sitting like an elephant in the room since that “One Small Step” left its mark in the unchanging lunar dust:
“Is a planetary surface – ANY planetary surface – really the best place for an expanding technological civilization?”
 
 
The Apollo 11 Anniversary is said to make “Space” formost in people’s minds every year, but is it really “Space” that popular culture is speaking of in the ongoing arguments over a “Return to the Moon” versus a “Mission to Mars”? Space is Space, it’s the place where size is not limited by gravity wells or rocket fairings, the place where energy is not limited by atmospheres or dwindling ancient reserves and where room to grow is not limited by someone else’s right to their own desired elbow room.
Space is the place where there are no limits at all and where benefits to ALL of Humanity – everywhere – are free for the using with no harm to anyone.
Sound far fetched? Sound Utopian and unachievable? Until a person reads The High Frontier for themselves, they should be careful about jumping to any conclusions.
Right now – but only for a limited time – you can put the SSI Kindle Edition of The High Frontier in your Kindle library forever for free.
The SSI Kindle edition includes all of Professor O’Neill’s 1988 updated text, the wonderful preface by Kathy Sullivan (Veteran Shuttle Astronaut, the first American woman to walk in Space, current Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere and Administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration), plus this edition features the Pat Rawlings cover art and all of the original interior illustrations by Donald Davis.

Then just start your Kindle device or app and sync your library to see The High Frontier in your cloud list. Download and start reading.
With Kindle whispersync you can read a bit on your phone while in the line at the grocery store, then pick up where you left off on your tablet while relaxing at home and continue from there on your work computer during lunch break. Kindle makes reading seemless across devices and right now SSI makes it free.
If you’ve never read The High Frontier for yourself you are in for a life changing experience – it is not what you may have been lead to believe. If you haven’t re-read The High Frontier in a while there is a very good chance that some of the details may surprise you all over again.
Gerard K. O’Neill’s The High Frontier is a true classic in Space and Engineering circles and yet it is also 100% readable and understandable by everyone. O’Neill, a world renowned nuclear physicist who was driven by Engineering details, had the gift to make big – VERY big – things make absolute sense. And it is now our gift to you.
Celebrate the anniversary of The One Small Step and The One Giant Leap by looking beyond “Missions” to a life worth living for everyone in Space. The High Frontier is amazingly practical, it’s do-able with technology we’ve had for decades… and it’s free for you right now. To get your own copy, just click this link.
