Dinner with an Astronaut

The inspiring memoir of Leroy Chiao, one of the first Asian American astronauts in history, elucidating his remarkable path into space as well as his experiences on Earth and beyond

Imagine if you could sit down and enjoy a meal with an astronaut. What questions would you ask? What could you learn after two drinks with an astronaut? Leroy Chiao answers that question and more in Dinner with an Astronaut, an insightful and witty deep dive into the world’s most unexplored realm: the cosmos.

As a child, Leroy always dreamed of going to space. One of fewer than four hundred American astronauts in history, he completed rigorous training and was hand-selected to achieve his wildest dreams, becoming one of the first Asian-American astronauts in history.

Using his unique perspective breaking barriers in a largely white field, Leroy now aims to share the wonders of space with those of us on Earth, detailing his astronaut training and otherworldly space missions. Gorgeously luminary and deeply profound, Dinner with an Astronaut invites readers to join Leroy Chiao at the table, for fans of Scott Kelly, Chris Hadfield, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
