Read: Mary Roach - Packing for Mars

I finished off Mary Roach's "Packing for Mars: the curious science of life in the void" this past weekend while visiting my friend Jenn. As expected it was full of obscure, entertaining facts about space travel, and further funny footnotes. Sometimes her jokes are a little hokey, but I'm willing to overlook it since she puts such an all-out effort into getting to the bottom of stories, asking the tough, sometimes humiliating questions that the rest of us wouldn't dare.
