Product Description:
Those who accept the risks of space travel know they will be far from home. Space travel requires knowledge of the spacecraft and its operating systems. It also requires confidence in the people who design and build the ships, spacesuits, and the systems that support them. Perhaps most important of all, space travelers must be brave, quick-witted, and creative. Follow six terrifying and true stories of these astronauts. ~Amber
