Ask an Astronaut: Tim Peake’s Guide to Life in Space
Ever wondered what it’s really like to live and work aboard the International Space Station? British astronaut Tim Peake answers your most burning questions in Ask an Astronaut.
Tim Peake is a marathon runner, mountaineer, skier, and caver – but he’s also the UK’s only astronaut. Selected from over 8,000 applicants for just six European Space Agency slots, he launched from Baikonur on 15 December 2015 as flight engineer, spending 186 days on the ISS.
Through the #askanastronaut hashtag, fans submitted questions that became this book. It covers everything: from training and launch to spacewalks, orbital research, daily routines, and survival tips for zero gravity. Peake answers what it feels like to orbit Earth faster than a bullet, how you eat and sleep in space, and even what to do when there’s nothing to do.
Packed with never-before-published photos, clear diagrams, and warm, honest humour, this is a deeply personal guide to life beyond our planet.
