Two starred reviews!The "compelling and inspiring" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) true story of America's first female astronauts hailed as "suspenseful, meticulously observed, enlightening" by Margot Lee Shetterly, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Figures, now adapted for young readers.
Sally Ride may have been the first US woman in space, but did you know there were five other incredible American women who helped blaze the trail for female astronauts by her side?
When NASA sent astronauts to the moon in the 1960s and 1970s, the agency excluded women from the corps, arguing that only military test pilots--a group women were also aggressively barred from--had the right stuff. But as the 1980s dawned so did new thinking, and six elite women scientists--Sally Ride, Judith Resnik, Anna Lee Fisher, Kathy Sullivan, Shannon Lucid, and Rhea Seddon--set out to prove they had exactly the right stuff to become the first US women astronauts.
In The Six -- Young Readers Edition, acclaimed journalist Loren Grush shows how these brilliant and courageous women fought to enter STEM fields they were discouraged from pursuing, endured claustrophobic--and often deeply sexist--media attention, underwent rigorous survival training, and prepared for years to take multi-million-dollar equipment into orbit.
Told with contributions from nearly all the living participants and now adapted for young readers, this book is an inspiring testament to their struggles, accomplishments, and sacrifices and how they built the tools that made the space program run. It's a legacy that lives on to inspire young people today.
Grush, Loren

Excellent wire! Flexible and easy to solder.
Size: 12 silicone wire red 10ft and black 10ft, Color: silicone wire red and black
This wire is great! I echo the other reviews indicating that the insulation and wire are very flexible and easy to solder. I have had wire that makes you question your ability to solder. Then there is wire like this that makes it so easy!

Best wire on Amazon
Size: 12 silicone wire red 10ft and black 10ft, Color: silicone wire red and black
I am convinced that this is some of the best wire on Amazon, if not in general. It's much thicker with more strands inside than other wire labelled as the same AWG. It has much higher quality insulation that can withstand double the temps of the cheaper stuff (big deal if using in engine bay etc.). And even then somehow its supper supple and soft to work with, strips very easily and cleanly. Definitely recommend spending the extra $ to go with BNTECHGO brand for wire. I was very please with both the 12 and 14 AWG wire in 10ft red and black.

Flexible, soft, and full of wire.
Size: 12 silicone wire red 10ft and black 10ft, Color: silicone wire red and black
Super-soft and flexible casing with a high density of fine wires inside. You won't have to worry about it being 90% insulation.
