Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in Space: A History of Aerial Navigation But with all due deference to the brilliant prescience of Roger Bacon, it is still evident from his own writings, although some of his admirers have sought to prove the contrary, that he did not fully understand the principles of atmospheric pressure, or he would not have thought it necessary to get his hollow globe on the surface of the atmosphere. As to his having some knowledge of the consistency of the air as an elastic fluid, that will not be denied, for at that period the attention of the learned began to be directed to the science of pneumatics. But they had no knowledge whatever of the various and distinct gases. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Performing Flight written by Scott Magelssen and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performing Flight sheds new light on moments in the history of US aviation and spaceflight through the lens of performance studies. From pioneering aviator Bessie Coleman to the emerging industry of space tourism, performance has consistently shaped public perception of the enterprise of flight and has guaranteed its success as a mode of entertainment, travel, research, and warfare. The book reveals fundamental connections between performance and human aviation and space travel over the past 100 years, beginning with the early aerial entertainers known as barnstormers (named after itinerant 19th century theater troupes) to the performative history of the Enola Gay and its pilot Paul Tibbets, who dropped the bomb on Hiroshima, thus ushering in the atomic age. The book also explores the phenomenon of “the pilot voice”; the creation of the American Astronaut, on whose performative success the Cold War, the Space Race, and funding of the US Space Program all depended; and the performative strategies employed to cement notions of space tourism as both manifest destiny and an escape route from a failed planet. A final chapter addresses the four hijacked flights of 9/11 and their representations in discourse and in memorials. Performing Flight effectively and imaginatively demonstrates the ways in which performance and flight in the United States have been inextricably linked for more than a century.
