L'autore:

Scott Carpenter is one of the seven original "Right Stuff" astronauts. The fourth American in space and the second to orbit the Earth, he went on to participate in the U.S. Navy's pioneering Man-in-the-Sea program (Sealabs I, II, and III) as an underwater explorer and researcher.

Kris Stoever was six years old in 1962 when her father, Scott Carpenter, rocketed into space. A graduate of Georgetown, she has worked as an editor and writer.
