Publisher's summary

A true story about making the most of your one incredible life.

Stacey Morgan kissed her husband goodbye before he donned his space suit on July 20, 2019, and headed to his waiting Soyuz rocket. With an overwhelming mix of pride, excitement, and terror, she and her children held hands and watched the rocket ignite and lift off for a nine-month mission aboard the International Space Station.

This is the story of the astronaut’s wife ― a journey full of unexpected twists and turns. While the love of her life orbited the Earth, Stacey was about to embark on a knock-your-socks-off adventure right here at home. This season would be different from any Stacey had experienced before. The risks were greater, the loneliness was deeper, and the stress was more intense. Filled with as many unique challenges as surreal opportunities, this deeply meaningful season taught her rich lessons about:

  • Preparing for any mission or adventure life throws at you
  • Rediscovering your fun side when you’ve been trapped in survival mode too long
  • Trusting God when you feel weak or alone
  • Choosing hope in the face of fear and uncertainty

Containing behind-the-scenes glimpses into a side of space flight that most of us will never experience, The Astronaut’s Wife is a funny, poignant, and meaningful exploration of living life to the fullest ― no matter where you roam.

Moving and encouraging!

I listened to the whole book within 24 hours… I can definitely say I’ve never done that before. I’ve never done a lot of things that Stacey has done and wrote about in her book, and yet I found her outlook and experiences to be relatable. Her story is moving and encouraging!
