Mike Weasner is a noted amateur astronomer. He was born and raised in southern Indiana, where his love of astronomy began. His journey through life may have started there, but there were many jumps onto other paths. During this journey Mike received an Astrophysics degree, was a jet fighter pilot and fighter instructor pilot, manager on the Air Force Space Shuttle Program, and computer engineer and manager in multiple roles at a large aerospace company. Readers will experience his loves of people, astronomy, music, flying, computers, and teaching, along with life changing decisions, twists and turns, ups and downs, challenges, failures, and successes. Readers can use the autobiography as a guide to their own journey, regardless of whether they are just starting out on that journey, are trying to decide among the multiple paths their journey might take, or as justification that they did indeed take the right paths, just like Mike.
