Check out my new book about Robert Goddard, whose historic rocket launch a century ago, on March 16, 1926, spawned the space age.

2026 marks the 100th anniversary of Robert Goddard’s pioneering rocket launch, the moment widely recognized as the beginning of the space age. To celebrate this milestone, I’m pleased to announce the March 3 release of my new book, Robert Goddard’s Massachusetts, co‑authored with Charles Slatkin, founder and director of The Wonder Mission's Goddard Project initiative. The book features a special foreword by Apollo 13 astronaut Jim Lovell, one of the many people deeply inspired by Goddard’s groundbreaking work.

You can puchase this book from Arcadia Publishing or your favorite online bookstore.
