No, I Think Most Astronauts Recognize That The Space Shuttle Program Is Very High-risk, And Are Prepared For Accidents.

When The Space Shuttle's Engines Cut Off, And You're Finally In Space, In Orbit, Weightless... I Remember Unstrapping From My Seat, Floating Over To The Window, And That's When I Got My First View Of Earth. Just A Spectacular View, And A Chance To See Our Planet As A Planet.

I Love The John Glenn Model... I May Call Nasa In 25 Years Or So, And See If They'd Like To Send Me To Mars.

Some Astronauts Sleep In Sort Of Beds - Compartments That You Can Open Up And Crawl Into And Then Close Up, Almost Like A Little Bedroom.
