inspirational astronaut ....
In fascinating and personal detail, and drawing on exclusive diaries
and audio recordings from his mission, astronaut Tim Peake takes
readers closer than ever before to experience what life in space is
really like: the sights, the smells, the fear, the sacrifice, the
exhilaration and the deep and abiding wonder of the view.Warm,
inspiring and often funny, Tim also charts his surprising road to
becoming an astronaut, from a shy and unassuming boy from Chichester
who had a passion for flight, to a young British Army officer, Apache
helicopter pilot, flight instructor and test pilot who served around
the world. Tim's extensive eighteen-year career in the Army included
the command of a platoon of soldiers in Northern Ireland during the
Troubles, deployment in Bosnia, and operations in Afghanistan.
2) An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth:
In his book, An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth, Chris Hadfield
takes readers deep into his years of training and space exploration to
show how to make the impossible possible. Through eye-opening,
entertaining stories filled with the adrenaline of launch, the
mesmerizing wonder of spacewalks and the measured, calm responses
mandated by crises, he explains how conventional wisdom can get in the
way of achievement – and happiness.
3) Endurance: My Year in Space, a Lifetime of Discovery....
The veteran of four space flights and the American record holder for
consecutive days spent in space, Scott Kelly has experienced things
very few have. Now, he takes us inside a sphere utterly hostile to
human life. He describes navigating the extreme challenges of
long-term spaceflight--the devastating effects on the body, the
isolation from everyone he loves and the comforts of Earth, the
pressures of constant close cohabitation, and the catastrophic risks
of depressurization or colliding with space junk. But perhaps the most
haunting challenge is that of being unable to help should tragedy
strike at home, something Kelly knows about firsthand.
