Orbital - Samantha Harvey


Reading Orbital felt like floating. There is something dreamlike about riding a space station round and round the Earth. The sun rises over and over, and the moon keeps on setting. As the world goes by and the space station goes around, the astronauts absorb the beauty, fragility and violence below. The six space station inhabitants are enamored with the world of the stars and the world of nature. Orbital reads like poem as it carries you along on an earthly and unearthly ride.
