註釋An astronaut since 1967, Joseph P. Allen shares his first-hand insights into the incomparable experience of traveling in space and brings the human dimension of the space program into focus. Giving a fascinating account of a shuttle flight, he describes the tension of a countdown and launch, the complexities of living for days in the strange weightless environment, the challeges of working in space, the emotional impact of seeing earth from space, the drama of the meteoric descent and landing. There are over 200 dramatic color photographs taken by the astronauts, showing life on board the spacecraft, glorious views of earth as seen from space, as well as startling images of the moon and the mysterious planets.
