These pioneers in space have laid the groundwork for future deep space explorations, yet the soul of an explorer dwells in all of us. Through astronauts’ accounts and testimonies available at NASA Headquarters Library, those who haven’t flown into space, orbited the Earth, left a footprint on the moon, or performed spacewalks on the International Space Station can gain insight into the courage it takes to be an astronaut and the ways in which space exploration has changed astronauts’ perspectives of life on Earth. What does it take to be one of those space traveling pioneers? Curiosity, a thirst for extra-terrestrial knowledge, a highly developed sense of adventure– those are some of the attributes necessary to take the risks inherent in venturing into the cosmos. Human exploration of space is one of the most important endeavors of mankind.
