Title: An amazing tribute
Product review: Just about anything and everything you wanted to know about Columbia's final mission is in this book. It does more than recount the accident and its aftermath; it devotes just as much attention to the valuable science that took place aboard STS-107, reconstructs the lives of the seven amazing men and women of Columbia's crew, and takes notice of the efforts of many folks behind the scenes of the mission. The book isn't just about the mission's terrible end; it's also a tribute to sixteen days of successful science, research and exploration, and to all the efforts required to sustain human space flight.There have already been a few books written about Columbia's final mission, but Mr. Chien's encyclopedic book is going to be hard to beat. It's packed with excellent information and broad in its scope, yet still accessible to the reader. It's a magnificent effort, and an amazing tribute.
