Ready for Launch by Scott Kelly

Using ten life-changing moments from his path to space, Astronaut Scott Kelly shares his advice for mastering fear and failure, and turning our daily struggles into rocket fuel for success--the perfect gift for graduations and other milestone moments

In this insightful and funny read, Scott Kelly shares how a distracted student with poor grades became a record-breaking astronaut and commander of the International Space Station.

People think that astronauts are always perfect. Failure's not an option, right? But as Scott shares in his deeply intimate book, he believes that it's our mistakes and challenges that have the potential to lead to greatness. Not everyone's road to achievement is a straight line. Most of us need to navigate a bumpier road full of obstacles to get where we want to be.

Scott's story is for everyone who believes that shooting for the stars is beyond their reach

SCOTT KELLY is a retired U.S. Air Force fighter and test pilot, an engineer, and a retired astronaut. Captain in the navy. Kelly, a four-time spaceflight veteran, led three missions to the International Space Station (ISS) and was a part of the year-long mission to the ISS. He set records for the total number of days spent in space and the single longest space mission by an American astronaut during the Year in Space mission. He currently resides in Houston, Texas.
