Book Review - "An Astronaut's Guide to Life On Earth" by Chris Hadfield
 

"An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth" by Colonel Chris Hadfield (ret.)

http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net...l/18170143.jpg

This book is compilation of Chris Hadfield's experiences of growing up wanting to be an astronaut (when Canadian astronauts didn't exist because there was no Canadian space program at all!) all the way through Air Force training to his time as a test pilot and through his ASSCan (NASA slang for Astronaut Candidate) days and finally his three trips to space.

The book isn't written in chronological order but rather in streams of thought that tie quite nicely into one another. It isn't, for most part, highly technical but rather philosophical and very inspirational. He talks about keys to success, visualizing failure, how to impact a team ("be a zero") and simple things that everyone should appreciate. His coverage pretty much goes to the end when he lands back on earth and covers everything including his famous "Space Oddity" music video he has on YouTube.

All in all it is a very calming read (very much his personality) and well written with plenty of funny moments and a surprisingly good chunk of photos of his life in the middle of the book.

I highly recommend this book for anyone 14 and up. Those of the younger age might have a hard time grasping some of his vocabulary (during his talks about technical bits) but for most part, it is quite understandable and easy to comprehend.

Also, in Toronto at least, the book is on sale for $20 for a hardcover at Indigo and Chapters - that definitely adds to the value to what is a very good book.

9/10 stars for me!

Hopefully good?

Such an interesting conversation about something unrelated to this platform from people who don't own these cars. Reported

Science fiction books are not my thing.

Oh ffs. This dude is in Salem too? I'll keep my eyes out for a C6 GS with tinfoil on the roof and covered in antenne's.

I'll keep my eyes open for a "Crapcan." I'll be sure to save the wave.

Fame in this world can only be acquired one way: membership in the club is required, in order to be featured on primetime television.

I gotta ask... what keeps you coming back here, being that you've sold your twin shortly after or before joining, and don't seem to have an interest in the platform? Is our misc. section really that interesting? :D

I created the account in order to sell GR86 parts I have no need for any longer. Upon browsing through the forum, I have found some very confused people, who I figured I would throw a bone to. I find it sad when people are so deceived, so I try to wake them up from their slumber.
What keeps you coming back? I figured it was normal to log in and browse the forum... Is it not?
Cheers!

Arrogance stems from one's belief in their superiority.
Confidence stems from one's belief in their accomplishments.

Know the difference.

Have you tried TikTok? Seems more up your ally.

How has this conspiracy nonsense become so prevalent among people that likely have a decent amount of coin? (supercharged c6)

the mental gymnastics needed for the conspiracies to hold water is wild.

Dude reminds me of so many Uber drivers I have had.

Who is more arrogant than these folks? Weren't these the same folks who carried out a eugenics program, due to their perceived notion of superiority? I assume you see their work as a great "accomplishment" then? If so, that is quite disturbing to say the least.

Magicians and occult is real, earth being round and space program is not

gotcha

This is not a post for Unplugem because he won't read it or watch the linked video or understand it if he did. It's for everyone else who's addicted to threads like these because we can't understand how in this modern world, people reach out for and cling to conspiratorial beliefs. Seems relevant now:

Part of the problem is the indoctrination into this alternate reality suggests that anyone who tells you anything that isn't part of the dogma is either stupid or evil. They are essentially brainwashed into thinking everyone else is brainwashed. I've tried introducing simple experiments theorists can do themselves, but convincing someone to put time and effort into proving something they think is ridiculous to begin with is quite difficult. Plus I'm an a**hole so that doesn't help.

Would an educated person try to capture a bird to dissect it to try to prove it's a machine, for example? Ok, maybe Irace would go that far to prove a point, but that guy has way too much time on his hands ;).

Everyone who has claimed to have been in "space" is a Freemason. Why do you think that is?

Do you happen to know what Freemasons believe in? Do you know which "god" they worship? Why do you think they all happen to be Freemasons?

The list is a lot bigger than some people think...

my favorite society is "secrete society"

Mock as you will. Misspellings happen. It still doesn't detract from the fact that these secret societies run your world.

shut the fuuuuuckkk upppp nobody cares

If you are jealous, why don't you just join the club?

ok. why do they suck so bad at running it? you'd think one of them would've shoved a nuke in north korea by now...

heck, even putin can't be getting on anyone's christmas lists right now the way he's screwing with the global economy...

It's all part of 'the plan' man.

all of these microsoft paint jpgs are indesputable evidence. Consider me converted.

I’m repeating myself, but God do I wish I had the time to post so much conspiracy stuff.

That being said I think there’s room for a car-conspiracy-movement. I suggest:
-the Nurburgring is not actually located on earth
-wheels don’t exist
-cars can run on water, people are just too afraid to try it
-Toyota is the brand of the devil
-Kia’s are exclusively driven by Freemasons, because they know.

I’m open to other inputs.

fun low horsepower cars are part of the lgbtq conspiracy

I do take pride in mine.

Every country is led by a member of the club. They aren't trying to make our lives better lol. Putin is a "young global leader" graduate https://www.weforum.org/reports/foru...ation-change/; he's a Klaus Schwab disciple who does as he's told by the WEF. Kim Jong Un is just another puppet taking orders from the top.
