This fourth volume in the series covers the period 2004 to the present day and features:
coverage of the Rosetta and Curiosity missions up to the end of 2013
coverage of Mars missions since 2005, including the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, Phoenix and Fobos-Grunt, plus a description of plans for future robotic exploration of the Red Planet
coverage of all planetary missions launched between 2004 and 2013, including the Deep Impact cometary mission, the MESSENGER Mercury orbiter, the New Horizons Pluto flyby and the Juno Jupiter orbiter
the first complete description of the Chinese Chang¿e 2 asteroid flyby mission ever published
extensive coverage of future missions, including the European BepiColombo Mercury orbiter and international plans to revisit the most interesting moons of Jupiter and Saturn.

Paolo Ulivi was born in Florence, Italy and graduated from the Politecnico di Milano University with a thesis on robotics for Mars sample return missions. He works as a consultant in aerospace structures in Toulouse, France. In his free time, he researches the history of astronautics, astronomy, aeronautics and the Cold War. He is also an amateur astronomer and specializes in Solar System observations.
David Harland studied astronomy to degree level, and pursued a career lecturing in computer science, and academic and industrial research. In 1995, David "retired" to resume his interest in space and started to write. He has over two dozen books published to date, a majority of them with Springer/Praxis and several others under contract. These days he considers himself to be an amateur hermit and a professional space historian.
Emphasizes the technology of space probes in terms of structures, propulsion, power, communications and data processing systems, and scientific instrumentation
Provides comprehensive coverage that ranges from the earliest planetary probes to the most recent planetary flights and missions
Details many grounded and unfulfilled missions, which may still be proven to be useful in the future
Focuses on the robotic missions initiated since 2004, including NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter
Looks ahead to possible future robotic missions and the prospect human exploration of Mars
Thoroughly illustrated with 225 images that bring the missions and time period to life
