Beschreibung
The Six was an extraordinary cohort of women recruited by NASA in the seventies. Greeted in Houston by make-up bags designed for use in space, no designated locker rooms and flight suits that didn't fit, they went on to break barriers on earth and in space. This sparkling history reveals their journey through NASA's outreach programme, rigorous training, sexism and the solidarity with which they overcame obstacles and launched into space.
