What reading level is The Practical Values of Space Exploration book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

, as it is called, is their stock in trade, theironly product. And space exploration appears to have given them theirgreatest boost.
One recent study on the subject regards research as the fourth majorindustrial revolution to take place in American history, following theadvents of steam mechanization, steel, electricity-and-internalcombustion engines.
    The fourth industrial revolution, ours, is unique in the number of people working on it, its complexity, and its power to push the economy at
... a rate previously impossible.
    Today between 5, 000 and 50, 000 _technical entrepreneurs_ (top R. & D. Engineers, leading scientists, and highly effective technical managers) are directly analogous to an estimated 50 to 500 men in all of the first three periods. Thus about 100 times the effort in terms of qualitative (effective, creative, patent-producing) manpower is being spent on the fourth revolution as on the other three combined.
    Total manpower, of course, is much more than that: there are probably 700, 000 engineers and industrially oriented scientists in the United States today, as against 2, 000 even as late as Edison's first high voltage light bulb.
