How Do You Go To The Bathroom In Space?
by William R. Pogue
Forward by John Glen
While doing research for an upcoming
story, I learned about this book and thought it would be useful in helping me
to understand what astronauts experience when they land back on Earth. That’s
where my story starts. I found out that information and more in How Do You Go To The Bathroom In Space?
Want to know if an astronaut bleeds in
space? How about what happens if someone floats away on a spacewalk? This book
is filled with questions like that and more. William R. Pogue, selected to be
an astronaut in the space program back in 1966, answers questions he has been
asked since visiting Skylab.
This book was located in the adult
non-fiction section of my local library, but I found it to be aimed toward
students because the resources in the back are for K-12 students and teachers
to use. Mind you, I did find a lot of useful information for the story I'm
writing. Plus, there were a lot of links to find more info as well.
Although this book has already been
updated once, as is indicated in the preface, I'm sure it could be again. So
much has happened since the publishing of this book, like the commercialization
of space flight, and planned missions to Mars. But you can still get a great
understanding of the astronaut experience. After all, it is part of space
history.
If you are looking for information about what astronauts experience in space, I highly recommend this book.
