A few years back, when we were all a little younger and less jaded – okay – when I was younger and less jaded (!) Universe Today reviewed the book The Rocket Company. This book speaks to the need of bootstraping our way into funding massive space projects privately, using our own gumption, connections and personalities, and doing so without the help of big governmental organizations because, let’s face it, there is less and less of the proverbial pie to go around.
This fictional book is becoming more lifelike as time goes on with companies like Deep Space Industries, Planetary Resources and many, many others, looking to explore the infinite possibilities our Universe has to offer. On April 30th, this title will be available for free on Amazon.
But for those of you who like the feel and smell of a book in your hands, Patrick Stiennon is giving away 3 free print copies of this book to three lucky Universe Today winners.

Hmmm…I just recently finished “Art & Physics – Parallel Visions in Space, Time, and light” by Leonard Shlain. Now reading “The Lost Language of Plants -The Ecological Importance of Plant Medicines to Life on Earth” by Stephen H. Buhner. I’ll be done with this book soon enough and will need something to read on my continuing journey to the stars! So sure, I’ll enter the giveaway!
