After I read this book, I got more interested in space. There were many things which I didn't know, so I was able to read this book with interest. I think that this book is worth reading because the readers learn a lot of things about space. I want to travel in space someday, but I don't want to be an astronaut because of hard training. I strongly recommend to read this book.
