为什么值得读
- 呈现从水星到阿波罗计划的工程管理
- 由任务指挥官一手记录真实航天挑战
- HN读者认可的阿波罗任务经典读物
“Kranz曾统领Apollo 11任务（Neil Armstrong在该任务中实现了Kennedy总统的登月誓言），并兼任Apollo 13任务的飞行指挥官。他亲自挂帅Tiger Team，攻坚克难，成功将Apollo 13的三名宇航员安全接回地球。（在电影Apollo 13中，Kranz由演员Ed Harris饰演，后者凭借此角色荣获奥斯卡最佳男配角提名）。”“在Failure Is Not an Option一书中，Gene Kranz重温了这些历史性时刻，并披露了围绕这些著名太空飞行的鲜为人知的新内幕。当年看似近乎完美无瑕的探月壮举，实际上是一幕幕令人心惊胆战的险

另一本经典（而且绝对非常契合 HN 口味的书）是《绝不妥协》（Failure Is Not an Option），它极其精彩地展现了他们从水星计划到阿波罗计划所面临的工程与管理挑战。https://smile.amazon.com/Failure-Not-Option-Mission-Control/...
The other classic (and definitely an HN-appropriate book) is "Failure Is Not an Option," which gives an awesome look at the engineering and management challenges they faced from Mercury to Apollo. https://smile.amazon.com/Failure-Not-Option-Mission-Control/...
……基于那本书改编的剧集也极其精彩。一定要去找来看一看。-- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_the_Earth_to_the_Moon_(TV_... 如果看完了还想找更多资料，我建议去读读吉恩·克兰茨（Gene Kranz）写的《绝不妥协》。
…based on that book is also quite excellent. Go find it and watch it. -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_the_Earth_to_the_Moon_(TV_... If you're still looking for more material after that, I'd go read "Failure is Not an Option" by Gene Kranz.
……pdf。我开始读第一本了，相当有意思。）关于阿波罗计划，有两本书我逢人必推：1) 安德鲁·柴金（Andrew Chaikin）的《月球第一人：阿波罗宇航员的航程》（A Man on the Moon: The Voyages of the Apollo Astronauts）。2) 吉恩·克兰茨（Gene Kranz）的《绝不妥协：从水星计划到阿波罗13号及以后的任务控制》（Failure Is Not an Option: Mission Control From Mercury to Apollo 13 and Beyond）。
…pdfs. I started to read the first one and it's fairly interesting.) There's two books I always recommend re: Apollo: 1) A Man on the Moon: The Voyages of the Apollo Astronauts, by Andrew Chaikin. 2) Failure Is Not an Option: Mission Control From Mercury to Apollo 13 and Beyond, by Gene Kranz.
你大概会喜欢吉恩·克兰茨写的《绝不妥协：从水星计划到阿波罗13号及以后的任务控制》。
You would probably enjoy Failure Is Not an Option: Mission Control From Mercury to Apollo 13 and Beyond by Gene Kranz.
……任何领域真正的工作，都不是那个样子的。看到马斯克向全世界公开他的工作细节——包括成功与失败，对世界各地的年轻人来说是多么宝贵的一课啊。我很喜欢吉恩·克兰茨的《绝不妥协》，但脱离了当年那个特定的使用语境，它就是个糟糕透顶的口号。实际上，“失败”本该是唯一的选项，因为如果你从未遭遇失败，往往意味着你根本没有全力以赴……
…That's not how real work -- of any kind, looks like. What a tremendous lesson for young people everywhere to see Musk share his work -- the successes and failures -- with the world. I loved Gene Kranz's "Failure is not an option," but outside of the specific context in which it was used, it is a terrible slogan. Failure, actually, ought to be the only option, in the sense that if you are never failing you likely are falling short…
要是你喜欢这类故事，吉恩·克兰茨的《绝不妥协》绝对是必读/必听之作。美国早期太空计划的每一次飞行，似乎都让人把心提到了嗓子眼。
And if you like stories like that, "Failure is not an option" by Gene Kranz is a must-read/listen. It seems every single flight of the early American Space Program was a nail-biter.
