The veteran of four space flights and the American record holder for most consecutive days spent in space, the author has experienced things very few of us ever have and very few of us ever will. In this book, he describes navigating the extreme challenge of long-term spaceflight, both existential and banal.
Kelly's humanity, compassion, humour, and passion shine as he describes navigating the extreme challenge of long-term spaceflight, both existential and banal. He touches on what's happened to his body, the sadness of being isolated from everyone he loves; the pressures of constant close cohabitation; the catastrophic risks of colliding with space junk, and the still more haunting threat of being absent should tragedy strike at home.
From a natural storyteller Endurance is one of the finest examples the triumph of the human imagination, the strength of the human will, and the boundless wonder of the galaxy.
