Space Operations Foundation cover art

Space Operations picks up where Aerospace leaves the atmosphere behind. Where Aerospace is about engineering a vehicle that flies, Space Operations is about everything required to design, launch, operate and eventually retire a spacecraft once it no longer has air, gravity or a quick way home to rely on. The track begins with Foundation and builds from there.
