I have now seen copies of the books, both hardcover and softcover, and I'm delighted with how they turned out. T-Minus 12 days until everyone else can see it too! (Unless you visit me at TCAF this weekend.)

The new book static-tested and fully fueled/rolling onto the launchpad/insert-your-own-metaphor-here, with a planned release date of May 19, 2009. Previews and more at the site, so stand by for engineers, astronauts, wolves, space ships, and other worlds.
Yes, no pictures on the blog. I want you to click the link, see?

Can you ever get enough of watching Ed White float in and out of the camera's eye in 1965 during the first Gemini spacewalk? (I qualify it that way since Alexei Leonov performed the first walk ever a few months prior to this. His is also a great story, which I got to tell in the upcoming T-Minus.) No. White's joy comes through the grainy video, clipped sound, and deadpan framing by the NASA official.
What the video doesn't include is what he says as he gets back in the spacecraft (after what sounds a lot like very determined coaxing by mission control and Jim McDivitt): "It's the saddest moment my life."
