Galaxy Girls tells the amazing true stories of fifty remarkable women who conquered the impossible and forever changed the world of space exploration.
Since the very beginning, women have helped fuel some of the greatest achievements in space. From astronauts to scientists, lawyers to teachers, these extraordinary women reached for the stars and taught us the sky is not the limit. Filled with stories that celebrate women from the nineteenth century to today--including Mary Jackson, NASA's first black female engineer, and former NASA Chief Astronaut Peggy Whitson, the record-holding American biochemistry researcher who has spent the most cumulative time in space--Galaxy Girls is an inspiring and informative look at the mark women have left on the space race.
Written by Libby Jackson, a leading expert in human spaceflight, and illustrated with bold and beautiful artwork from the students of the London College of Communication, this empowering book will delight and inspire trailblazers of all ages.
