Summary of Leap of Faith: An Astronaut's Journey into the Unknown
As one of the original Mercury Seven astronauts, Gordon Cooper was a 20th-century pioneer, testing the limits of technology and the human body and opening new vistas of physical and intellectual exploration. In Leap of Faith, Cooper not only reveals what went on behind the scenes of the early U.S. space program, he also confronts a question that will be at the heart of space exploration in the 21st century: Is there life beyond our planet?Cooper believes emphatically that there is. He describes his personal encounters with UFOs - and with the U.S. government's longstanding program of covering up even plausible evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence. On this subject, there is no more credible witness than Gordon Cooper -- and no more courageous, compelling, or thought-provoking account than Leap of Faith.
