From his childhood to working for NASA, and then eventually becoming an astronaut"--|cProvided by publisher. 520 2 "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? The Ordinary Spaceman puts you in the flight suit of U.S. astronaut Clayton C. Anderson and takes you on the journey of this small-town boy from Nebraska who spent 167 days living and working on the International Space Station, including more than forty hours of space walks. Having applied to NASA fifteen times over fifteen years to become an astronaut before his ultimate selection, Anderson offers a unique perspective on his life as a veteran space flier, one characterized by humility and perseverance. From the application process to launch aboard the space shuttle Atlantis, from serving as a family escort for the ill-fated Columbia crew in 2003 to his own daily struggles--family separation, competitive battles to win coveted flight assignments, the stress of a highly visible job, and the ever-present risk of having to make the ultimate sacrifice--Anderson shares the full range of his experiences. With a mix of levity and gravitas, Anderson gives an authentic view of the highs and the lows, the triumphs and the tragedies of life as a NASA astronaut"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Anderson, Clayton C.,|d1959-|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2009122709 600 17 Anderson, Clayton C.,|d1959-|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1942190 610 10 United States.|bNational Aeronautics and Space Administration|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n78087581|vBiography.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99001237 610 17 United States.|bNational Aeronautics and Space Administration.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/528469 610 20 International Space Station.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no96035149 610 24 United States.|bNational Aeronautics and Space Administration. 610 24 International Space Station. 610 27 International Space Station.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/718638 650 0 Astronauts|zUnited States|vBiography.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008117629 650 0 Extravehicular activity (Manned space flight)|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85046593 650 7 Astronauts.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/819615 650 7 Extravehicular activity (Manned space flight)|2fast|0https ://id.worldcat.org/fast/919052 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026047 655 7 Autobiographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919894 776 08 |iPrint version:|aAnderson, Clayton C., 1959-|tOrdinary spaceman|z9780803262829|w(DLC) 2014048858 |w(OCoLC)894747525 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=979511|zOnline eBook.
