Description: |
Althought the author does not want us to start packing our zero-gravity suitcases just yet, he describes: - how the history of space travel can teach us valuable lessons about reliability, safety, and the inevitable risks involved. - who will most likely be able, in terms of age and health status, to participate in space flight - in a series of detailed imaginative scenarios, what space travel will look and feel like, from the pre-flight training to a walk on the moon. |
