Catria's Cohort

Have you ever thought about future space travel? What restrictions would be placed on passengers and crew? What would everyday life be like aboard ship for generations, with little chance of finding a suitable planet to call home? Would we adapt to the situation or go crazy trying to cope? We are an amazing species and have overcome life's obstacles before, and I believe that we could do so again. I applaud those men and women who have journeyed in space capsules to go to the moon or to build a space station. It is difficult to imagine being sealed in a canister where the very air you breathe and the food that you eat is limited to what you bring with you, and yet, people have done it, and survived. This book paints a realistic picture of life aboard such a ship and some of the problems the passengers face.
