The Author lost all control of his story. Bad research and contrived situations make it frustrating.

This is a weird book and a great example of an author losing total control of a story. The first half of the book is pretty good but as soon as things get into space it’s like a different author began writing. The characters become totally unbelievable and the authors knowledge of space flight, procedures and even basic equipment operations become all or apparent. The audiobook narration is great but this book falls apart in the worst way imaginable. The story become contrived and the behavior of the astronauts is so laughable it’s insulting to NASA. I cannot help but think this book lacked from having honest beta readers and several desperately needed rewrites. The author should have spent a lot more time in research. I cannot recommend it to anyone.
