My Space Odyssey began many years ago at my High School in Ingleside, Texas. On this night, our science class gathered together with our science teacher. We were to track a Russian Satellite, named Sputnik-1 across the sky. But my journey in Space and Faith really began as I was looking up at the unreachable Moon. The moon was a metaphor for the unattainable: "You might as well ask for the moon", they used to say. Now with Sputnik, my dreams can be a reality. Bill Bell wants to share his space and Faith journey with you. I was blessed on my journey by a loving God, who made each day at NASA an adventure and a dream come true. My career working for NASA began at the Saturn V Rocket Facility in New Orleans, La. It was here that I become friends with two rocket scientist. Their names are Wernher Von Braun, who was in charge of The Saturn V Rocket Program and a Russian Scientist named Rubin. I followed my dream by supporting NASA at Johnson Space Center, in the field of Safety and Mission Assurance (S&MA). It has allowed me to work with Astronauts for their Spacewalks, Apollo Moon Missions, and the International Space Station. Please take Bill''s simple story of Faith and let it inspire you to begin your own Journey. From the young age of 11, looking up at the moon and stars, Bill Bell knew that one day he would work for NASA. This autobiography tells the story of how he has achieved that goal by his perseverance and motivation. From his childhood he was raised on a small Texas ranch by humble parents. Who installed in him A believe, that he was capable of most anything that he set his mind to. Bill would support NASA as a Safety Engineer at Johnson Space Center. His career would take him from landing a Man on the Moon, The Space Shuttle, and the International Space Station.

This is a book about readers on the move in the age of Victorian empire. It examines the libraries and reading habits of five reading constituencies from the long nineteenth century: shipboard emigrants, Australian convicts, Scottish settlers, polar explorers, and troops in the First World War. What was the role of reading in extreme circumstances? How were new meanings made under strange skies? How was reading connected with mobile communities in an age of expansion? Uncovering a vast range of sources from the period, from diaries, periodicals, and literary culture, Bill Bell reveals some remarkable and unanticipated insights into the way that reading operated within and upon the British Empire for over a century.

The Age of Exploration and Discovery may well have started in the 15th century, but for the British, the 19th century saw the rise of the British Empire and an explosion in world travel. The travel narratives written during this century were profuse, and by some estimates more travel narratives were written during the first half of the 19th century than in all preceding centuries. These accounts tell of wondrous zoological and botanical finds, of topography never before imagined, and of exotic peoples as well. At the time, there was one publisher, John Murray, known for its utter domination of the travel narrative field. The caliber and profile of their list was known throughout the UK and Europe, and into the US as well. The authors of the house included Jane Austen, Lord Byron, Washington Irving, and Sir Walter Scott. And in its list of travel writing and exploration, the house boasted the authors Charles Darwin and Charles Lyell. Murray s name became as synonymous with travel writing and exploration as it was with literary giants. Travels into Print is a tour through the archives and files of the House of Murray, and marvelous expedition in the geography of travel and exploration writing, knowledge, and reception in the 19th century. Rather than focusing on narratives of a particular region, or scientific area of interest, or particular period, the work uses a source that cuts across all of these areas, the publisher. Steeped in book files, and correspondence about edits, and revisions, sent between Murray and his staff and explorers, the book addresses the ways in which the texts were written, the role of truth in the accounts, correspondence as a form of production, and the writings as travel documents. This is a wonderful history of the book, told from the perspective of a legendary book and author maker. "
