Lord was becoming a teenager in Southern California and her mother was dying of cancer, Lord's father--an archetypal, remote, Cold War-era rocket engineer--disappeared into his work at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, helping build the space probes of the Mariner Mars 69 mission. Thirty years later, Lord found herself reporting on the JPL, triggering childhood memories and a desire to revisit her past as a way of understanding the ethos of rocket science. 000290815 61020 $$aJet Propulsion Laboratory (U.S.)$$xHistory. 000290815 650_0 $$aRocketry. 000290815 85200 $$bgen$$hTL782$$i.L67$$i2005 000290815 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:290815$$pGLOBAL_SET 000290815 938__ $$aIngram$$bINGR$$n0802714277 000290815 980__ $$aBIB 000290815 980__ $$aBOOK 000290815 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
