Traveling into space and even emigrating to nearby worlds may soon become part of the human experience. Scientists, engineers, and investors are working hard to make space tourism and colonization a reality. As astronauts can attest, extraterrestrial travel is incomparably thrilling. To make the most of the experience requires serious physical and mental adaptations in virtually every aspect of life, from eating to intimacy. Everyone who goes into space sees Earth and life on it from a profoundly different perspective than they had before liftoff.Astronomer and former NASA/ASEE scientist Neil F. Comins has written the go-to book for anyone interested in space exploration. He describes the wonders that travelers will encounter-weightlessness, unparalleled views of Earth and the cosmos, and the opportunity to walk on another world-as well as the dangers: radiation, projectiles, unbreathable atmospheres, and potential equipment failures. He also provides insights into specific trips to destinations including suborbital flights, space stations, the Moon, asteroids, comets, and Mars-the top candidate for colonization. Although many challenges are technical, Comins outlines them in clear language for all readers. He synthesizes key issues and cutting-edge research in astronomy, physics, biology, psychology, and sociology to create a complete manual for the ultimate voyage. 410 0$aColumbia scholarship online. 606 $aSpace flight$xPhysiological effect 606 $aManned space flight 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSpace flight$xPhysiological effect. 615 0$aManned space flight. 676 $a616.980214 700 $aComins$b Neil F.$f1951-$0753974 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466459503321 996 $aThe traveler's guide to space$92479049 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01122nam 2200361 450 001 9910431357103321 005 20221020210538.0 010 $a1-83962-311-X 035 $a(CKB)4100000011716848 035 $a(NjHacI)994100000011716848 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011716848 100 $a20221020d2020 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 03$aAn overview and management of multiple chronic conditions /$fSevgi Akarsu, editor 210 1$a[Place of publication not identified] :$cIntechOpen,$d[2020] 210 4$dİ2020 215 $a1 online resource (114 pages) $cillustrations 311 $a1-83962-310-1 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 606 $aFetal brain$xAbnormalities 615 0$aFetal brain$xAbnormalities. 676 $a618.3268 702 $aAkarsu$b Sevgi 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910431357103321 996 $aAn Overview and Management of Multiple Chronic Conditions$92054626 997 $aUNINA
