It's a story that must be told.
Known as father of the Centaur space launch vehicle and the concept of space industrialization, the late Krafft A. Ehricke was a leading pioneer of the American space program.
He dedicated his life to discovering and spreading a rational understanding of what he called "the extraterrestrial imperative:" the true global trends and dangers faced by mankind, and solutions that would be impossible without assistance from space. Often called "the Ambassador of Space," he made the case for space as no one has, before or since. So far-reaching and prophetic was his vision, it remains timeless today. The new website is designed as a "slide show" of over 200 bite-sized pages spanning seven decades up to 2010. Complementary PDF downloads of selected Ehricke writings, including what could be a master plan for what do next in space, are available at the conclusion.
