A wildly entertaining account of the rules lessons procedures and experiences of space travel How to Astronaut is a book that will appeal to anyone-- male or female young or old--with even a passing interest in space. Written by Col. Terry Virts a former astronaut space shuttle pilot and International Space Station commander who spent 200 consecutive days in space it answers all of our curious questions and much more: Here's how to survive that first brush with weightlessness (in the so-called vomit comet) the nearly indescribable thrill of a first blastoff managing the daily tasks--eating bathing doing chores going to the bathroom-- that are anything but ordinary when you're orbiting the earth at 17 000 miles per hour how to don your space suit and head out to work on a spacewalk ("alone in the vacuum") how to prepare for emergencies of all kinds from managing "space brain" to dealing with a dead crew member and what it's like to return to Earth including something as seemingly simple as walking after spending six months in zero-g. A born storyteller Virts reveals the often-untold side of space travel in 51 short chapters filled with a mix of you-are-there detail a dose of science made simple and the inherent drama of describing something few will ever know firsthand.
