Aurora 7
ISBN: 9783319204390 bzw. 3319204394, vermutlich in Englisch, Springer Shop, neu, E-Book, elektronischer Download.
TO A NATION enthralled by the heroic exploits of the Mercury astronauts, the launch of Lt. Cmdr. Scott Carpenter on NASA's second orbital space flight was a renewed cause for pride, jubilation and celebration. Within hours, that excitement had given way to stunned disbelief and anxiety as shaken broadcasters began preparing the American public for the very real possibility that an American astronaut and his spacecraft may have been lost at sea. In fact, it had been a very close call. Completely out of fuel and forced to manually guide Aurora 7 through the frightening inferno of re-entry, Carpenter brought the Mercury spacecraft down to a safe splashdown in the ocean. In doing so, he controversially overshot the intended landing zone. Despite his efforts, Carpenter's performance on the MA-7 mission was later derided by powerful figures within NASA. He would never fly into space again. Taking temporary leave of NASA, Carpenter participated in the U.S. Navy's pioneering Sealab program. For a record 30 days he lived and worked aboard a pressurized habitat resting on the floor of the ocean, becoming the nation's first astronaut/aquanaut explorer. Following extensive research conducted by noted spaceflight historian Colin Burgess, the drama-filled flight of Aurora 7 is faithfully recounted in this engrossing book, along with the personal recollections of Scott Carpenter and those closest to the actual events. eBook.

Neuware - Following up on Colin Burgess's other books on the Mercury manned missions, this continues the complete history of NASA's nascent spaceflight program. Each Mercury flight forms a key part of the organization's early years. The story of Aurora 7 is retold here using in-depth research that fully contextualizes the project and reveals new aspects of the early days of space exploration. After successfully launching suborbital Mercury missions as well as the first orbital spaceflight in Friendship 7, NASA continued with Aurora 7, flown by Malcolm Scott Carpenter, which landed 260 miles from the recovery vessel, the USS Intrepid, after a series of technical issues. This would be Carpenter's only spaceflight, yet the three orbital missions did manage to complete several useful experiments.
