A bright future is dawning...
Revisado: 02-28-19
In Space 2.0, noted Space author/journalist, speaker and Historian Rod Pyle lays out the past, present and potentially bright future of human presence in space. Presented in grounded, global and logical detail, the author discusses the current technical issues to be tackled and solved, world economic considerations, different possibilities and pathways and all in an enthusiastic and enjoyable to listen to writing style. This is a perfect primer and reference for just what Humankind can aspire to in leaving our Earthly cradle and finding our place among the stars. Highly recommended listening.

Historia
What's it like to travel at more than 850 MPH, riding in a supersonic T-38 twin turbojet engine airplane? What happens when the space station toilet breaks? How do astronauts "take out the trash" on a spacewalk, tightly encapsulated in a space suit with just a few layers of fabric and Kevlar between them and the unforgiving vacuum of outer space?

Not really so ordinary...
Revisado: 08-21-17
To call any human selected to be an astronaut "ordinary" seems odd. Given the rigors of what it takes to even apply, you already have a person of great drive and self awareness. Let's not even talk about what it takes to be selected for a flight.
What Clayton Anderson so wonderfully captures in this heartfelt and personal telling of his journey is how the ordinary part of all of us are capable, if we *really* *truly* work to our best, can find the extraordinary within us. Yes, Clayton, as he keeps reminding us, is "just a small town Nebraska boy", but what emerges from this book is the tale of an extraordinary human that with humility and grace was able to make his boyhood dreams come true. Yes, he is human and that got in the way sometimes, but was always simply working on everything being the best for his family, his crew mates and anyone else that touched his life. A five star story told from "ground level" because he deftly takes you with him on his journey from ordinary to the extraordinary.
Very well read and no problem with the audio book. Highly recommended to Space lovers and anyone else simply interested in a wonderful journal of a person living an "extraordinary" life.
