| 1. | The Space Place (Making Sense of Science)
Paperback by Helen Sharman. Have you ever wished you could ride in a rocket and be launched into space? What could you see, and how would you live in the place we call Space? How will you cope when everything becomes weightless? Most astronauts train for two to ten years before their first space mission. Follow their training, experience the excitement of launch day and the weird and the wonderful life without gravity. In the future humans might be able to explore parts of the Universe outside our solar system. They may work in international space cities, making things to send back to Earth. We might even be able to mine asteroids for precious minerals. Driving home from work one evening, Helen Sharman, OBE, heard a radio advertisement: 'Astronaut wanted - no experience necessary'. Project Juno was an historic Russian Space mission which would provide Britain with its first astronaut. Over 13,000 people applied and Helen soon found herself among the final four, then two, candidates, at Russia's Star City cosmonaut training centre. In May 1991, she was hurtling at 18,000 mph around the earth sixteen times a day, on an eight day mission. Since her return from space Helen has become one of Britain's leading 'Ambassadors of Science'.
