Ateyo and I went to Barnes & Noble, and they said that they won't be getting them until the end of the month.

Irayo, HNM, for sharing your pics of the book!
I think I'll have to get myself a copy of it.

I was just on Skype to tm20 and he mentioned it to me. 2 minutes later I had bought it off Amazon! Hehehe

I had forgot all about this one. It's been an age coming. You can read a bit of it from the Amazon website:

I read some of it today, although not as much as I wanted to... it's good so far though. Quite well researched, and discussing recent and future efforts in space travel
