520 8  An economic historian argues that privately funded space 
       exploration is not a new development, but a trend 
       beginning with the astronomical observatories of the 
       nineteenth century Over the last half-century there has 
       been a rapid expansion in commerce off the surface of our 
       planet. Nations and corporations have placed hundreds of 
       satellites that provide billions of dollars' worth of 
       communications, scientific, global positioning, and 
       commercial services, while construction has been completed
       on humanity's ninth and largest space station. On the 
       planet itself, government agencies, corporations, and 
       individuals plan for the expansion of economic development
       to the lunar surface, asteroids, and Mars. The future of 
       space exploration seems likely to include a mix of large 
       government funded missions as well as independent private-
       sector missions. 'The Long Space Age' examines the 
       economic history of American space exploration and 
       spaceflight, from early astronomical observatories to the 
       International Space Station, and argues that the 
       contemporary rise of private-sector efforts is the re-
       emergence of a long-run trend not a new phenomenon.
