Praise for Burning the Sky:
“Wolverton’s gripping Burning the Sky [is] the first book-length treatment of a remarkable series of nuclear tests in outer space, code-named Operation Argus. . . . Informative and balanced in its attention to diplomacy, science and biography.”- Nature, 2018 (https://go.nature.com/3chXbXn)
“A gripping and nerdy tale of how a military’s fetish for power and technology can wind up threatening the public instead of securing the peace. A timely reminder of the dangers of unchecked adventurism as we enter an age of cyber and social warfare.”- R. Scott Kemp, Professor, Nuclear Science and Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
