📱 eBook en inglés ORBITING ON THE EDGE OF TOMORROW: INSIDE THE LIVES OF THE ISS TRAILBLAZERS

Floating 250 miles above Earth, the astronauts of the International Space Station live in one of the most advanced, high-stakes environments ever created. Orbiting on the Edge of Tomorrow gives general readers a clear, technical exploration of how these modern explorers work, experiment, and survive in the silent vacuum beyond our atmosphere.
This book breaks down the ISS as a functioning laboratory: its modular design, life-support architecture, propulsion coordination, and the precise routines that keep astronauts healthy in microgravity. Readers will learn how spacefarers conduct complex research on fluid dynamics, biological adaptation, materials science, and Earth observation—experiments impossible to replicate on the ground.
The narrative also explains the engineering logic behind orbital maintenance, cargo deliveries, EVA procedures, spacecraft docking, and international coordination among NASA, ESA, Roscosmos, JAXA, and CSA. Alongside these systems, the book highlights the human element: teamwork, adaptation to isolation, physical strain, and the psychological discipline required for months of continuous mission work.
Designed for inquisitive readers, this technical yet accessible guide reveals how astronauts transform the ISS into a frontier outpost—pushing the limits of science and human capability with every orbit.
