I've heard him on a couple podcast episodes of Travel With Rick Steves and I love the way he talks about his experiences orbiting the earth and his reflections on the planet and mankind. The last time he was on the space station he took thousands of pictures and became intimately acquainted with earth's features from above. In this book he points out things that he learned or found interesting, but he also delves into whimsy by looking for shapes on the earth the same way we might look for shapes in the clouds. Astronaut Chris Hadfield serves up a selection of photographs of Earth that he took when he was on the International Space Station, and it's a book that is impossible to dislike and impossible to tire of. The perspective on Earth is unique and awe-inspiring and often surprising: many of Hadfield's pictures don't seem like Earth at all, their colours and compositions seeming like some alien world or abstract painting. Hadfield leans heavily into this abstract quality, and while it can't be said that the photos become samey – every one is remarkable – I found myself preferring astronaut Tim Peake's collection Hello, Is This Planet Earth?, which had greater variety and novelty in its selections.

Photographs from the International Space Station punctuated with fun, fascinating commentary on life in zero gravity. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

This book is pretty awe inspiring. It is in many ways a simple yet profound observation of planet Earth. ( )
