The University of Arizona Press has added 14 formerly out-of-print volumes of the Space Science Series to its open access platform, Open Arizona. The collection makes available again the work of leaders in the field, including Richard P. Binzel, Tom Gehrels, Mildred Shapley Matthews, and many others. These works provide an important archive of a pivotal time in several emerging fields connected to astronomy and the space sciences. 

The series brings together the world’s top experts, who lay out their foundational research on current understandings, while also building frameworks for the highest-priority questions for the future. The books were originally published between 1976 and 2000. Since 2000, books in the Space Science Series have been produced in collaboration with the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, Texas.

The Space Science Series volumes are available for download here.
