From Tom Jones on Facebook:
I'm very excited that Sky Walking will reappear under Smithsonian Books on Dec. 20. I've written a new epilogue, updating my thoughts on our future space policy. Hope you'll enjoy it!
Sky Walking: An Astronaut's Memoir by Tom Jones
Astronaut Tom Jones had trained for years for one climatic moment: his first step through an airlock into the vast nothingness of space. What neither he nor anyone else had counted on was a door that refused to open. But that is the nature of spaceflight — anything can, and sometimes does, go wrong.
Ultimately, Jones spent fifty-two days orbiting Earth, including more than nineteen hours outside doing extravehicular activity — that is, sky walking. This is the tale of that amazing journey.
