The Spacefarer's HandbookScience and Life Beyond Earth /[electronic resource] :by Bergita Ganse, Urs Ganse. - 1st ed. 2020. - XII, 295 p. 150 illus., 122 illus. in color.online resource. - Space Exploration. - Space Exploration.

1. How to Become a Spacefarer -- 2. Building Spacecraft -- 3. How to Fly a Spacecraft -- 4. Daily Life in Space -- 5. Space Medicine -- 6. Exploration and Colonisation.

Now is the time to fly to space! New technological developments, commercialisation of spaceflight and advances in space medicine have made human space travel more attainable than ever before. This entertaining but nevertheless authoritative book gives a practical introduction to space travel from a number of viewpoints: How spacecraft are built, how to steer and navigate them, instructions for a comfortable everyday life in space and a guide to remain healthy and strong in weightlessness. The Spacefarer's Handbook is full of advice, tips and anecdotes to prepare the reader for their own trip to space. At the same time, it does not lose the scientific perspective on spaceflight. The authors, a physicist and a space medicine specialist, explain the underlying concepts rigorously and include recent research findings. From the operating principles of rocket engines, via bone loss in weightlessness to the methane lakes of Titan, this book contains everything aspiring spacefarers need to know! "Highly recommended for everyone who wants to fly to space and all passengers of our mothership Earth!" Hans Schlegel, ESA Astronaut.
