Endurance, Young Readers Edition: My Year in Space and How I Got There by Scott Kelly

Endurance, Young Readers Edition: My Year in Space and How I Got There by Scott Kelly tells the story of Scott Kelly’s own life in space. In the book, Kelly details the conditions he had to make do with on board the International Space Station. While he was sent on the mission as part of a study that wanted to determine the impact of space on aging bodies, he made good use of his time aboard the space shuttle. For example, he helped grow the first plants in space and chatted with top-ranking officials on his experiences, which was invaluable to the legacy he would create for himself. Many have drawn inspiration from his story, and it is clear that they will continue to do so in the future.
