Of course the noted Lady Astronaut Elma York would like to go, but there's a lot riding on whoever the International Aerospace Coalition decides to send on this historic-but potentially very dangerous-mission? Could Elma really leave behind her husband and the chance to start a family to spend several years traveling to Mars? And with the Civil Rights movement taking hold all over Earth, will the astronaut pool ever be allowed to catch up, and will these brave men and women of all races be treated equitably when they get there? This gripping look at the real conflicts behind a fantastical space race will put a new spin on our visions of what might have been.

Anonim a dat nota:

A really good sequel!!!! While I had issues with the way certain characters behaved and how their behaviour was received, the whole plot was really exciting! Definitely a must read.

Recenzii

`Kowal masters both science and historical accuracy in this alternate history adventure.' -- Andy Weir
`The Lady Astronaut series might be set in an alternate past, but they're cutting-edge SF novels that speak volumes about the present.' -- The Verge
"In The Calculating Stars, Mary Robinette Kowal imagines an alternate history of spaceflight that reminds me of everything I loved about Hidden Figures." -- Cady Coleman, Astronaut
"This is what NASA never had, a heroine with attitude." -- The Wall Street Journal

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
It’s 1961, and the Moon colony is well established, but tensions are rising on Earth—both from those who see themselves being left behind on a disaster-laden planet, and those who don’t believe in equality. But even with personal sacrifices and political tensions, Elma York, the Lady Astronaut, dearly wants to go on the first mission to Mars.
