This six-part series chronicles the inside story of NASA's most epic endeavors. In "Ordinary Supermen" NASA and America's first astronauts, the Mercury Seven, are on a journey into the unknown. "Friends and Rivals" recounts the story of the nine astronauts on the Gemini mission, which rehearsed procedures important to future launches. "Landing the Eagle" details the Apollo program, the Apollo 1 disaster, the flights of Apollo 8, 9, and 10, and the tense lunar descent of Apollo 11. "The Explorers" features five successful moon landings - Apollo missions 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17, the 'successful failure' of Apollo 13, and Skylab. "The Shuttle" looks at that program, including the maiden voyage, the Challenger disaster, and the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope. "A Home In Space" centers on repairing the Hubble Space Telescope, construction of the International Space Station, and the Columbia re-entry disaster of 2003. Told by the astronauts and engineers who were there, this series celebrates NASA's triumphs and tragedies, and the history of American space exploration.Rating: TV-PG.DVD; Region 1, NTSC; Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo, Dolby Digital 5.1 surround; anamorphic widescreen (1.78:1) presentation.

- Includes bibliographical references and index.Go for launch -- The space shuttle program -- Challenger disaster -- After the explosion."On-point historical photographs combined with strong narration bring the story of the Challenger explosion to life. Kids will learn about how it happened, the subsequent investigation into its causes, and how it set back U.S. investment in space exploration. As an added bonus, readers will learn about how this played out on TV. By the time of the Challenger, the only network covering it in live time was CNN, as people thought of space flight as 'old hat.' This brought space flight back into the public consciousness, albeit not in a good way. Accompanying video will show readers what viewers saw at the time"--

- Last launch : Discovery, Endeavor, Atlantis / by Winters, Dan,1962-photographer.(CARDINAL)335195;
- "Americans have been driven to explore beyond the horizon ever since the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock. In the twentieth century, that drive took us to the moon and inspired dreams of setting foot on other planets and voyaging among the stars. The vehicle we built to launch those far journeys was the space shuttle--Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavour. This fleet of reusable spacecraft was designed to be our taxi to earth orbit, where we would board spaceships heading for strange new worlds. While the shuttle program never accomplished that goal, its 135 missions sent more than 350 people on a courageous journey into the unknown... Last Launch is a stunning photographic tribute to America's space shuttle program. Dan Winters was one of only a handful of photographers to whom NASA gave close-range access to photograph the last launches of Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavour. Positioning automatically controlled cameras at strategic points around the launch pad--some as close as seven hundred feet--he recorded images of take-offs that capture the incredible power and transcendent beauty of the blast that sends the shuttle hurtling into space. Winters also takes us on a visual tour of the shuttle as a marvel of technology--from the crew spaces with their complex instrumentation, to the massive engines that propelled the shuttle, to the enormous vehicle assembly building where the shuttles were prepared for flight... A unique historical document, Last Launch powerfully evokes an all-American story--the quest for new frontiers"--"Last Launch comprises some sixty photos of the last 3 U.S. space shuttle missions by acclaimed photographer Dan Winters. In a brief personal piece Winters writes about seeing the first space launch on television with his parents, his ongoing love-affair with the space program over the decades, and his feelings as it is discontinued. An essay by American film director, screenwriter and producer Al Reinert puts the photographs and the program in historical perspective. This book is a technically brilliant and culturally important collection of photographs by an artist who was one of a handful of photographers given behind the scenes access to the U. S. space shuttle program"--

Now, you can do better than that! You can actually make what they eat in your own kitchen! And while you're waiting for your delicious (hah!) space food to cook, you can read about the history of the space program, space food preparation methods, and even get to know many of the astronauts that have dined in space. Did they find the food appetizing? What did they miss most when they were in space? How has NASA try to improve the food over the years? Charles Bourland is a retired long-time director of the NASA space food program, and Gregory Vogt, also a former NASA education specialist, helped train the astronauts. Both veterans of the U.S. space program have combined here to provide authentic recipes not only of foods that were actually served during various space missions (including Skylab, Apollo, the space shuttle, and the International Space Station) but also some of the astronauts' favorite recipes and even space recipes from famous TV chefs Rachael Ray and Emeril Lagasse! You will be amused and amazed at the information you find here. And you will be ready to impress your friends and family with your new culinary skills. Finally, you will have a much better understanding of what it really is to live in space, for weeks or even months at a time. Any volunteers for a trip to Mars? If you are a food lover, maybe not after you read this book and serve up some of its culinary treat.
