We Seven
Book (italiano):
• Published for the fiftieth anniversary of the Mercury program: Project Mercury ran from 1959 through 1963, put the first American in space, and defined NASA's manned space flights to come, from Gemini through Apollo. In <em>We Seven</em>, first published in 1962, the astronauts take readers behind the scenes of this pioneering program—even into the space capsules themselves. <P>• Fascinating firsthand accounts: The astronauts describe the exhilarating launches, hair-raising challenges, and incredible successes of Project Mercury—from breaking through the earth's atmosphere to panicking when a hatch blows. But Project Mercury was more than the heroism of individual missions. In <em>We Seven</em>, America's original astronauts share with us—as only they can—the hopes and dreams of the U.S. at the dawn of a new era.
