Launch Ready: Three Weeks Until “Space Shuttle Stories” Release on Oct. 31

October 9, 2023 By TOM JONES 3 Comments

We’re three weeks out from the official publication of Space Shuttle Stories, but copies are already beginning to show up in some retail stores. The pages look spectacular, graced with hundreds of rarely seen shuttle and astronaut images, many new to publication.

I was excited to discover my author Q&A this weekend in “Air and Space Quarterly,” published by the National Air & Space Museum. Read the online version here, and please pass it on.

Writing this book was an exciting opportunity to hear many shuttle flier stories I’d never heard in my eleven years as an astronaut. I hope you’ll be similarly delighted. Let me know if you’re interested in an author talk and book signing near you, and we’ll try and set one up in the coming months.
