From the time it was published in 2000 by Simon & Schuster these pages have remained continuously in my possession...I hope that you will enjoy this story of my life and times in Mission Control as much as I did living in it and use it to keep the dream alive for many years to come.” Pre-certified Zarelli Space Authentication.
