Krátky popis
'Filled with wonderment and awe ... Greene's eloquent memoir is
equal parts escape and comfort.' Publishers Weekly &,nbsp, A
powerful reflection on life in isolation, in pursuit of the dream
of Mars. &,nbsp, In 2013 Kate Greene moved to Mars.On NASA’s
first HI-SEAS simulated Mars mission in Hawaii, she lived for four
months in an isolated geodesic dome with her crewmates, gaining
incredible insight into human behaviour in tight quarters, as well
as the nature of boredom, dreams and isolation that arise amidst
the promise of scientific progress and glory.Â&,nbsp,Greene
draws on her experience to contemplate what makes an astronaut, the
challenges of freeze-dried eggs and time-lagged correspondence, the
cost of shooting for a Planet B.The result is a story of space and
life, of the slippage between dreams and reality, of bodies in
space, and of humanity’s incredible impulse to explore. From
trying out life on Mars, Greene examines what it is to live on
Earth.â€~In her thoughtful, well-written account of the mission,
Greene reflects on what this and other space missions can teach us
about ourselves and life on Earth.’ Physics Today
