The Right Stuff is a 1979 book by Tom Wolfe about the pilots engaged in U.S. postwar research with experimental rocket-powered, high-speed aircraft as well as documenting the stories of the first Project Mercury astronauts selected for the NASA space program. The Right Stuff is based on extensive research by Wolfe, who interviewed test pilots, the astronauts and their wives, among others. The story contrasts the Mercury Seven and their families with other test pilots such as Chuck Yeager, who was considered by many contemporaries as the best of them all, but who was never selected as an astronaut.

  • Os Eleitos é um livro de 1979 escrito por Tom Wolfe sobre os pilotos envolvidos em experiências de foguetes americanos no pós-guerra, aeronaves de alta velocidade, bem como documentar as histórias dos primeiros astronautas do Projeto Mercury selecionados para o programa espacial da NASA. Os Eleitos é baseado em uma extensa pesquisa de Wolfe, que entrevistou os pilotos de teste, os astronautas e suas esposas, entre outros. A história contrasta os "Mercury Seven" e suas famílias com os pilotos de testes, como Chuck Yeager, que foi considerado por muitos contemporâneos, como o melhor de todos eles, mas que nunca foi selecionado como um astronauta.
