Knygos aprašymas

Neil couldn't have walked on the moon without Josephine, Dee, Katherine, and the other women of Team Apollo. An inspiring introduction to the "hidden figures"!

NASA expert Suzanne Slade highlights these 12 female pioneers of STEM in this nonfiction picture book, and perfect for 6-9-year-old aspiring engineers and astronauts!

This is the story of our daring quest to visit the moon, featuring the twelve talented women who helped get us there. These women performed a variety of daunting jobs to accomplish the first moon landing, including:

Phyllis Gaylard designed the descent engine that allowed for a gentle landing on the lunar surface. Hazel Fellows created the spacesuits that shielded the astronauts on the moon. And Katherine Johnson verified the flight calculations that let them return home safely.
Despite sexism and racism, these "hidden figures" persisted, contributing to the space program and paving the way for future women engineers and astronauts. Women on a Mission will surely astound and inspire young readers, and its retro-style illustrations pay homage to the era.
