About the Book

In June 2024, a new era in space exploration began with the launch of Boeing's CST-100 Starliner spacecraft. This historic mission, the first crewed flight of the Starliner, marked a significant milestone in the partnership between NASA and private industry, paving the way for a future where commercial spaceflight plays a vital role in the exploration of the cosmos.But the journey was not without its challenges. As astronauts Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Sunita "Suni" Williams made their way to the International Space Station (ISS), they faced unexpected technical glitches that tested the resilience of the spacecraft and its crew. From propulsion system leaks to thruster failures, the mission encountered a series of obstacles that required quick thinking, adaptability, and a commitment to safety that defined the spirit of space exploration.

In "Test Flight Saga," author George Hoover takes readers on a thrilling journey through the Starliner mission, exploring the lessons learned and the implications for future space travel. Drawing on firsthand accounts from the astronauts themselves, as well as insights from the teams at Boeing and NASA, this book offers a comprehensive look at the challenges and triumphs of modern space exploration.
Through engaging storytelling and expert analysis, "Test Flight Saga" delves into the science behind the Starliner mission, examining the effects of microgravity on the human body and the cutting-edge research being conducted aboard the ISS.

Whether you're a space enthusiast, a student of science and technology, or simply someone who marvels at the wonders of "Test Flight Saga" is a must-read. It offers a glimpse into the future of human spaceflight, where the boundaries of exploration are continually pushed, and the human spirit soars ever higher.
