Packing for Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void
by Mary Roach
star4.2
Roach investigates the unglamorous side of human spaceflight: motion sickness, spacesuit plumbing, cadaver crash tests, food-freeze-drying experiments, and NASA's elaborate simulations of isolation. The book is a scientific and comic anatomy of what happens to the human body, mind, and bathroom when gravity disappears.
