***The puzzle book of 2018***

Have YOU got what it takes to be an astronaut?

This book will help readers of all ages find out. Featuring 100 real astronaut tests and exercises from the European Space Agency’s rigorous selection process, ranging from easy to fiendishly hard, The Astronaut Selection Test Book goes where no puzzle book has gone before.

Including puzzles and tests on:

· visual perception and logic

· mental arithmetic and concentration

· psychological readiness

· teamwork and leadership

· survival, physical and medical skills

· foreign languages (every astronaut has to know Russian!)

and much more, this richly illustrated book draws on Tim Peake's first-hand experience of applying to be an astronaut in 2008, when he and five others were chosen – out of over 8,000 applications!

We’ve all dreamed of being an astronaut, though of the estimated 100 billion people who have ever lived, only 557 people have travelled to space. But with this unprecedented look into real astronaut selection, you might just find out your dreams can become reality…

Tim Peake was the first British ESA astronaut to visit the International Space Station. He is also a No.1 best-selling author and an inspirational communicator of science to audiences of all ages. A former Apache helicopter pilot, flight instructor and test pilot, Tim was selected as an ESA astronaut in May 2009. After years of arduous training Tim was assigned to a mission to the International Space Station in May 2013. He launched to space on 15 December 2015. Tim was the first British astronaut to perform a spacewalk (EVA) and took part in over 250 scientific experiments during his mission. His Principia mission inspired the nation and focused on educational outreach, engaging more than 2 million schoolchildren across Europe in over 30 projects during his time in space. Tim was awarded a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George by Queen Elizabeth II.
