Congratulations to Associate Professor Christine Evans, whose history of satellite communications,\u00a0No Heavenly Bodies<\/em>, has been published by MIT Press. Co-authored with Lars Lundgren, of S\u00f6dert\u00f6rn University in Stockholm, the book explores the role of Eastern Bloc nations in the development of global satellite networks. In contrast to much of the work on the Cold War\u2019s technological rivalries, Evans and Lundgren reveal the surprising degree to which space-age communication systems were shaped by \u201csignificant overlaps, shared imaginaries, points of contact and exchange, and negotiated settlements\u201d that bridged East and West.
