Órbitas no pretende trazar un camino perfecto hacia la consecución de tus metas; es más bien una invitación a la aventura y a la exploración interior.
En estas páginas, Sara García Alonso -primera astronauta española de la Agencia Espacial Europea- comparte su particular experiencia, salpicada de anécdotas personales, para ofrecernos claves sobre cómo plantear y afrontar los desafíos. Con un testimonio inspirador y vitalista, la autora fusiona ensayo, ficción y autobiografía para reflexionar sobre los impulsos que nos guían a lo largo de la vida y moldean nuestra forma de ver el mundo, al tiempo que nos alienta a no rendirnos nunca en la persecución de nuestros sueños. Dividido en seis «órbitas , cada capítulo aborda temas como la búsqueda de la identidad, la libertad para tomar decisiones propias, la valentía de desafiar lo establecido, la expansión de los límites físicos y mentales, y el peso de las tradiciones. Todo ello con una mirada crítica, a veces irónica, hacia los convencionalismos. «Una órbita es un camino que seguimos una vez adquirida la inercia necesaria para emprender el rumbo. El motor de mi viaje, en torno al cual he explorado múltiples trayectorias, es la curiosidad. Este libro es un compendio de algunos de esos caminos explorados, de los apuntes extraídos y de los rincones que aún están por descubrir . ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Sara García Alonso--the first Spanish astronaut with the European Space Agency--shares her unique experience to offer insights on how to approach and face challenges. An utterly personal journey through six orbits that invite us to reflect on identity. --La Razón
Sara García Alonso recounts experiences from her life driven by curiosity. --20 Minutos
A role model, a pioneer. --La Aventura del Saber
Orbits does not aim to chart a perfect path toward achieving your goals; rather, it is an invitation to adventure and inner exploration. In these pages, Sara García Alonso--the first Spanish astronaut with the European Space Agency--shares her unique experience, peppered with personal anecdotes, to offer insights on how to approach and tackle challenges. With an inspiring and vibrant narrative, the author blends essay, fiction, and autobiography to reflect on the impulses that guide us throughout life and shape our view of the world, while encouraging us never to give up on pursuing our dreams. Divided into six orbits, each chapter addresses themes such as the search for identity, the freedom to make one's own decisions, the courage to challenge the status quo, the expansion of physical and mental limits, and the weight of traditions. All this with a critical, sometimes ironic eye toward convention. An orbit is a path we follow once we've gained the momentum needed to set a course. The driving force behind my journey, around which I have explored multiple paths, is curiosity. This book is a compendium of some of those paths explored, the insights gleaned, and the corners yet to be discovered.
