A HOUSE IN SPACE
No book, including the ones by astronauts, has given so compelling an account of life in Orbit. Henry Cooper,on assignment from The New Yorker, talked to all the participants in the three Skylab missions which accumulated a total of 171 days - nearly six months - of constant weightlessness. What they found there were the kind of amazing occurrences that you will find yourself starting conversation with. The astronauts spent hours searching for lost objects that wandered off. Whenever they opened a drawer the stuff inside exploded out at them in slow motion. Whichever way they stood in a room was “local down.” The third crew went on strike. Fascinating problems, ingenious solutions in definitively exotic environment.
