- what it&s like out there & what it&s like now back here Enter Scott Kelly&s fascinating world & dare to think of your own a little differently The veteran of four space flights & the American record holder for most consecutive days spent in space Scott Kelly has experienced things very few of us ever have & very few of us ever will Kelly&s humanity compassion humour & passion shine as he describes navigating the extreme challenge of long-term spaceflight both existential & banal He touches on what&s happened to his body the sadness of being isolated from everyone he loves; the pressures of constant close cohabitation; the catastrophic risks of colliding with space junk & the still more haunting threat of being absent should tragedy strike at home From a natural storyteller Endurance is one of the finest examples the triumph of the human imagination the strength of the human will & the boundless wonder of the galaxy
