From sea level to outer space, there is about 100,000 meters in height. This section is what we usually call the "sky". The height range that ordinary humans move within daily is usually limited to less than 100 meters. Compared to the highest mountain of 8,848 meters on earth, and the sky, which is 100,000 meters, we humans technically move on a plane. Even with human footprints all over the world, the understanding and use of the sky is less than 0.1%. Even when we are on an airplane, we merely quickly pass through about 10%. Gazing at and exploring the sky are our next goals. Now, follow our lead to explore this mysterious realm! First of all, let′s start from 1 meter above sea level...

In How High the Sky?, jurist Thomas Gangale explores the oldest and most important controversy in space law: how far up does national airspace go, and where does the international environment of outer space begin? Even though nations did not object to the first satellites flying over their sovereign territory, after more than six decades there is still no international agreement on how low the right of space object overflight extends, nor are there agreed legal definitions of “space object” and “space activity.” Dr. Gangale brings his background as an aerospace engineer to bear in exploding long-held beliefs of the legal community, and he offers a draft international convention to settle the oldest and most intractable problems in space law.

A series of stories put together to make you laugh and reflect on the good things in life. Many of the stories are true in nature, telling of the comical things said and done by kids and grandkids as they were growing up. There is also a mixture of fiction and some stories about the author's thoughts as he travels to and fro. Hunters and fishermen will enjoy the fiction. Moms will recognize such things as an occasional toad in the jeans pockets. Nature lovers will enjoy the lines about the wind, clouds, and trees. Most of these stories are written to ease the stress of daily life. If you take the time to read two stories a day for a month, see how they may start or end your day with a laugh, and at the end of the month, you may be less stressed out.
