REID TAYLOR JENKINS ATMOSPHERE A GMA BOOK CLUB ...

"Thoughtful and reserved  Joan is content with her life as a professor of physics and astronomy
at Rice University and as aunt to her precocious niece Frances--that is  until she comes across
an advertisement seeking the first women scientists to join NASA's space shuttle program.
Suddenly  Joan burns to be one of the few people to go to space. Selected from a pool of
thousands of applicants in the summer of 1980  Joan begins training at Houston's Johnson Space
Center  alongside an exceptional group of fellow candidates. ... As the new astronauts become
unlikely friends and prepare for their first flights  Joan finds a passion and a love she never
imagined. In this new light  Joan begins to question everything she thinks she knows about her
place in the observable universe"--
