Ask the astronaut. Peak Tim

Tim Peak is fond of marathon running, mountaineering and skiing, raising his son and going on the speleological campaigns in the Western Sussex. Tim also took a selection in the program of the European Space Agency (ECA). More than 8,000 participants claimed six places for open space flights... And today Tim Peak is the only astronaut throughout the UK. December 15, 2015 at 14:03 Tim Peak as a second sidebuilder went from the Baikonur Cosmodrome to spend 186 days in orbit and find out how to live and survive in space.

What Tim felt , rotating around the earth faster than an accelerating bullet? What is it, to sleep and generally live in space? What to do when there is nothing to do? How are things in modern space?

Returning home, Tim decided to share everyone experienced with earthlings. In social networks, the hashtag #askanastronaut was launched, with which Tim's questions were selected. Interview with all humanity, carried out with the help of social networks, has become this book. It seems to be revealed all the features of life in orbit - from preparation to start, from take -off to the first exit to outer space, from the intricacies of modern orbital research to the details of the diet of the astronaut and everyday life on board the international space station.

“Ask the astronaut” - an in -depth and thorough guide to life in space, written by a good -natured, open and very simple person. In this leadership, there was a place for many previously not published photographs, a heap of explaining diagrams and illustrations, humor and love for their work, and they make this book an extremely interesting and very personal story about life in space.
