  Important Astronauts Cosmonauts...

  This book is the eighth volume of “The Living in Space Series”. Each volume focuses on one particular technology of living in space. 
  This book covers the Astronauts, Cosmonauts, and other individuals who were responsible for some of the biggest space adventures to date. 
  When I was a kid growing up in the 1960s my friends and I were always listening to the latest news about the Mercury Seven and their latest adventures flying into space. 
  As of 2020 less than 600 persons have gone into space. These people have pioneered many different types of space activities and are responsible for many legends. 
  In 1985 while working for Hewlett Packard I got myself transferred to work at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas for a couple of years. It was incredible for me because I got to see the manned space flight center up close, walk inside of Space mockups, and meet many astronauts. In fact it was David Wolf—who later became an astronaut who took me up for rides in his Pitt Special Acrobatic plane (where I got really sick) which convinced me to get my own pilots license. I even applied for the astronaut corps but didn’t make it. 
  I also knew Julie Resnick who was killed in the Challenger explosion. It was very impressive attending the Challenger public funeral where President Reagan spoke. 
  As a lifelong space buff, I’m very happy to write this book series and introduce the key players here. In this book we will profile those persons who have been the star players in man’s exploration of space, and who have made major space contributions over the years.

  Tales from the Ant World

  Edward O. Wilson recalls his lifetime with ants, from his first boyhood encounters in the woods of Alabama to perilous journeys into the Brazilian rainforest. 
   
  “Ants are the most warlike of all animals, with colony pitted against colony,” writes Edward O. Wilson, one of the world’s most beloved scientists. “Their clashes dwarf Waterloo and Gettysburg.” In Tales from the Ant World, two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Wilson takes us on a myrmecological tour to such far-flung destinations as Mozambique and New Guinea, the Gulf of Mexico’s Dauphin Island, and even his parent’s overgrown urban backyard, thrillingly relating his nine-decade-long scientific obsession with many of the Earth’s more than 15,000 ant species. 
   
  Animating his scientific observations with illuminating personal stories, Wilson homes in on twenty-five ant species to explain how these genetically superior creatures talk, smell, and taste, and more significantly, belong to colonies that fight to determine dominance. Wryly observing that “males are little more than flying sperm missiles” or that ants send their “old ladies” into battle, Wilson eloquently relays his brushes with fire, army, and leafcutter ants, as well as more exotic species. Among them are the very rare matabele, Africa’s fiercest warrior ants, whose female hunters can carry up to fifteen termites in their jaw (and, as Wilson reports from personal experience, have an incredibly painful stinger); Costa Rica’s Basiceros, the slowest of all ants; and New Caledonia’s bull ants, the most endangered of them all, which Wilson discovered in 2011 after over twenty years of presumed extinction. 
   
  Tales from the Ant World is a fascinating, if not occasionally hair-raising, personal account by one of our greatest scientists and a necessary volume for any lover of the natural world.
