Good books on the future of spaceflight?

[Unit327]

I've recently been reading some excelent books, namely The Case For Mars and Spaceflight Revolution (about SSTO spaceplanes). Does anyone have some more recommended reading along that vein? I'm mostly interested in near future developments, not history or biographical books.

Not a book, but for anything space flight related Centauri Dreams is an amazing website!

Some of the articles are quite long, so I guess you could pretend the website's a book

T.A. Heppenheimer's Colonies In Space is a cool look at how they thought space exploration would look in the post-Apollo era (warning: it's almost 40 years old), and really inspired me when I was a kid (still 30 years after it was published). Not sure how likely you are to run across it though; I've never seen another copy in a bookstore (not 100% sure where I got mine, and it was already kinda well-used when I did).

I dont know if it is precisely what you are looking for. But from the creator of centauri dreams site (Paul Gilster) you can read:

"Centauri Dreams Imagininng and planning interstellar exploration"

Is one of the newest books about that topic, whereby it is very updated with the latest discoveries.
