Summary
Details

Girls have always reached for the stars-some just weren't given the launch pad. This book uncovers the real stories of women who shaped space exploration, from the early computers working behind the scenes to the engineers, scientists, and astronauts leading today's most ambitious missions. It's a bold, eye-opening look at how women have broken barriers, defied expectations, and made space their own.

You'll meet pioneers who programmed the first spacecraft, pushed through gatekeeping in labs and boardrooms, and stood their ground in spacesuits. You'll also hear from teens making waves right now-building satellites, coding planetary rovers, and dreaming up new paths to Mars. This isn't about waiting for permission. It's about launching yourself, asking bigger questions, and finding your place in science even when the odds say ""not yet.""

Perfect for readers who care about space, STEM, gender equality, or just discovering stories that usually go untold, this book invites you into the world of space as it really is: diverse, complicated, evolving-and more open than ever to those willing to push forward. Whether you're a future coder, pilot, astrophysicist, or policy maker, there's room in the sky for you.
