I started following Mike when I was monitoring the NASA shuttle missions. In fact, I remember watching the Hubble Space Telescope Servicing Mission 4 in 2009 where Mike... put some elbow grease into the repair! As I read the book I came to realise that he was one of the key people, in more than one way, for saving and extending Hubble. He helped us go deeper with the HST.
I remember his PR activities at NASA and his hilarious guest appearances on Big Bang Theory.
Humble, funny, self-deprecating, and smart. And deep. He's very altruistic. All that comes through in this easy-to-read book that I stumbled across and downloaded from the library.
What a cool guy.
