Ninety Nine Point Nine Nine Nine to Infinity

About the Book

Many stories have been written and movies made of the astronauts and the Apollo flights which the world is privy to, but to my knowledge nothing has been written about the thousands of people in the back shops of manufacturing plants throughout the nations that gave their blood sweat and tears to create these spacecrafts in a short period of time. Their story needs to be told.
