Zero G -
Life and Survival in Space
Armchair astronauts can
soar into outer space and join those who have journeyed far from Earth.
Photographs from hundreds of U.S. and Russian space missions past and
present vividly convey the remarkable experiences of traveling in a rocket
ship--the trials and dangers, excitement and glory, and even what it feels
like to sleep and eat upside down and live in a weightless, yet strong,
body. Plus: speculation on future trips to more distant planets and
galaxies. Ages 8 to adult. 8.5" x 10.75" 144 pages.
