I have wanted to be an astronaut since I was six years old. Like many out there who are intensely interested in the space program, I've met many astronauts (one of my claims to fame is that I have shaken hands with every human who has so far walked on the Moon!), and even come to know a few.Mike Massimino is definitely one I want to get to know.Besides being a terrific autobiography, this is one of those books that makes you really feel like "you're there." When Mike writes of being selected to be an astronaut, I actually teared up -- he wrote in a way that made me feel like I was the person being selected by NASA. Massimino's description of his first extravehicular activity (EVA -- "spacewalk") is one of the best "what-did-it-feel-like-and-what-were-you-thinking" descriptions ever. I felt like I was actually out there with him, being a "Hubble Jedi" right beside him.The book is funny, informative, entertaining, moving, and educational. Massimino's writing style almost perfectly emulates the way he speaks. He is a normal kid from Brooklyn who, by skills, capabilities, intelligence, persistence and sheer luck, went on to do extraordinary things. After reading this book, I had an intense desire to meet Massimino and sit down over dinner and drinks and talk until he kicks me out.At 344 pages, "Spaceman" is an average-sized book. It is not an average life story. I read it over the Christmas break in seven hours and did not want it to end. If you have even one-tenth the interest I have in the space program, buy Massimino's "Spaceman."This book is that good. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inspiring, exciting, moving. Human. *by C***K on April 21, 2024* Massimino takes us for a ride. We learn about his journey. He is a humble hero who reminds through his exciting story that luck and skill are necessary, but inspiration and drive are as well. He is like the mountain climber who knows that the quality of the journey is as significant as the goal. He understands the prime value of teamwork and a good sense of humor. He is an excellent writer. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent read. *by B***T on October 1, 2024* I wish this book was required reading in all high schools. It is inspirational and demonstrates what can be accomplished by determination and hard work, no matter how lofty the goal. ## Frequently Bought Together - Spaceman: An Astronaut's Unlikely Journey to Unlock the Secrets of the Universe - Moonshot: A NASA Astronaut’s Guide to Achieving the Impossible - An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth: What Going to Space Taught Me About Ingenuity, Determination, and Being Prepared for Anything --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/34024766-spaceman-an-astronauts-unlikely-journey-to-unlock-the-secrets-universe](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/34024766-spaceman-an-astronauts-unlikely-journey-to-unlock-the-secrets-universe) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-10-10*
