Infinite Wonder by Scott Kelly
Autographed & Hardcover
One's perspective shifts when one lives for an entire year in the isolating, grueling, and utterly unforgiving vacuum of space. Only Commander Scott Kelly knows that, however. No other astronaut has matched that endurance. Kelly's photos prove that this perspective--from 250 miles above earth--while hard-won, is also almost unspeakably beautiful. He mastered the rare art of microgravity photography. Using a Nikon D4 with a long 800mm lens and a 1.4x magnifying zoom lens, he panned the camera as the shutter released in order to compensate for the space station's velocity: 17,500 mph relative to the earth. Kelly's artist's eye helped make him a social media sensation, and here his photos are collected alongside his own commentary, which sets the images in their proper contexts, human and cosmic.
