A graphic novel based on the true story of the astronaut testing program that enlisted thirteen women who believed they would be considered serious candidates to be among the first Americans in space. The women struggled to contribute to the space program in the face of political opposition, personal vendettas, and the prevailing sexism of the period. Includes a short interview (1 page) with Susan Kilrain, a former NASA pilot.
