On February 1, 2003, ten astronauts were orbiting the planet. Seven headed back to Earth on the space shuttle Columbia. They never made it. & the three men left behind found themselves too far from home.

Chris Jones chronicles the efforts of the beleaguered Mission Control in Houston & Moscow as they work frantically against the clock to bring their men safely back to Earth, ultimately settling on a plan that felt, at best, like a long shot. Yet even amid the danger, the call of space is a siren song, & Too Far From Home details beautifully the majesty & mystique of space travel, while reminding us all how perilous it is to soar beyond the sky.
