On January 27, 1967, astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee climbed into a new spacecraft perched atop a large Saturn rocket at Kennedy Space Center in Florida for a routine dress rehearsal of their upcoming launch into orbit, then less than a month away. All three astronauts were experienced pilots and had dreams of one day walking on the moon. But little did they know, nor did anyone else, that once they entered the spacecraft that cold winter day they would never leave it alive. The Apollo program would be perilously close to failure before it ever got off the ground. But rather than dooming the space program, this tragedy caused the spacecraft to be completely overhauled, creating a stellar flying machine to achieve the program’s primary goal: putting man on the moon. Apollo 1 is a candid portrayal of the astronauts, the disaster that killed them, and its aftermath. In it, readers will learn: How the Apollo 1 spacecraft was doomed from the start, with miles of uninsulated wiring and tons of flammable materials in a pure oxygen atmosphere, along with a hatch that wouldn’t open How, due to political pressure, the government contract to build the Apollo 1 craft went to a bidder with an inferior plan How public opinion polls were beginning to turn against the space program before the tragedy and got much worse after Apollo 1 is about America fulfilling its destiny of man setting foot on the moon. It’s also about the three American heroes who lost their lives in the tragedy, but whose lives were not lost in vain.  

At this time of writing, The Mobi Apollo 1: The Tragedy That Put Us on the Moon has garnered 8 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Mobi is Good TO READ!

Ryan Walters wrote an excellent account of Apollo 1. He provided information I had not previously known and I have read MANY books about the "space race" era including all of the astronaut autobiographies, the books by Gene Kranz and Christopher Craft (JSC flight directors), and "Calculated Risk," the biography of Gus Grissom, commander of Apollo 1. To provide something of significance that was new took a LOT of research on the part of the author. The first half of the book provides readers with a synopsis of the history of the space program from its earliest days up to Apollo 1. There are several errors in that section, but NONE of those are very serious nor do they have any impact on the second half of the book, the most important part, detailing Apollo 1. (If Amazon would allow for fractional stars I would go with a 4.6 rating.) Highly recommend this one!
