ISBN:  9781524731595 (hardcover) : 1524731595 (hardcover) Description:  387 pages, 24 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations ; 24 cm Edition:  First edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  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 inimical to human life. He describes navigating the extreme challenge of long-term spaceflight, both existential and banal: the devastating effects on the body; the isolation from everyone he loves and the comforts of Earth; the pressures of constant close cohabitation; the catastrophic risks of depressurization or colliding with space junk, and the still more haunting threat of being unable to help should tragedy strike at home--an agonizing situation Kelly faced when, on another mission, his twin brother's wife, Gabrielle Giffords, was shot while he still had two months in space. Kelly's humanity, compassion, humor, and passion resonate throughout, as he recalls his rough-and-tumble New Jersey childhood and the youthful inspiration that sparked his astounding career, and as he makes clear his belief that Mars will be the next, ultimately challenging step in American spaceflight. A natural storyteller and modern-day hero, Kelly has a message of hope for the future that will inspire for generations to come. Here, in his personal story, we see the triumph of the human imagination, the strength of the human will, and the boundless wonder of the galaxy.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Nonfiction 629.45009 Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hanapepe Public Library Adult Nonfiction 629.45009 Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 629.45009 Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 629.45009 Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 629.45009 Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 629.45009 KELLY Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 629.45009 Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Liliha Public Library Adult Biography B Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Biography B Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 629.45009 Kelly Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
