Ask an Astronaut: My Guide to Life in Space by Tim Peake
4 stars
Tim Peake spent six months in the International Space Station and decided to ask the public for questions regarding his experience. This book is a collection of those questions along with his very detailed answers. For anyone with a basic interest in current-day space travel, this book provides a wealth of information from the very beginning of launch to the aftereffects of living in microgravity. Tim Peake answers questions with a good mix of expertise and humor and provides a clear argument for the importance of a continuing Space Station. I especially enjoyed the photgraphs at the end and the illustrations throughout. I, at times, found the Q & A format a burden and would have rather read a straight memoir of his experiences but, overall, I liked this exploration of life in low orbit. I received a digital ARC of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
