Women in Space: 23 Stories of First Flights, Scientific Missions, and Gravity-Breaking Adventures (7)
When Valentina Tereshkova blasted off aboard Vostok 6 on June 16, 1963, she became the first woman to rocket into space. It would be 19 years before another woman got a chance—cosmonaut Svetlana Savitskaya in 1982—followed by American astronaut Sally Ride a year later. By breaking the stratospheric ceiling, these women forged a path for many female astronauts, cosmonauts, and mission specialists to follow. Women in Space profiles 23 pioneers, including Eileen Collins, the first woman to command the space shuttle; Peggy Whitson, who logged more than a year in orbit aboard the International Space Station; and Mae Jemison, the first African American woman in space; as well as astronauts from Japan, Canada, Italy, South Korea, France, and more. Readers will also learn about the Mercury 13, American women selected by NASA in the late 1950s to train for spaceflight. Though they matched and sometimes surpassed their male counterparts in performance, they were ultimately denied the opportunity to head out to the launching pad. Their story, and the stories of the pilots, physicists, and doctors who followed them, demonstrate the vital role women have played in the quest for scientific understanding.

The title is indeed literal, so this book showcases women who have actually been in space, not women who have worked on the space program but did not make it into orbit. In addition to those 23, there's also a chapter that briefly but fairly thoroughly talks about the Mercury 13. Most of these women are not going to be readily known to anyone who isn't a hardcore space enthusiast, and it's interesting to see the different paths these women took to get to space.

Written for a young adult audience, this book disappoints with its many factual and typographical errors. Although published in 2014, it seems stuck in the shuttle era and feels biased in favour of US missions. Frustrating that the editors didn’t catch mistakes like the assertion that a re-entering shuttle flew “at 25 times the speed of light” or gendered language such as “manned mission”. The women (and men) of space deserve better.

Everything I thought I knew about the space program went out the window when I read this book.
This is a YA book, but it’s easily enjoyable by readers of all ages. The writing flows well and hooked me right away. I learned a lot about the women who’ve been to space. Not just that the US sent women, but the first women in Russia and across the globe. Sure, there is a large portion on US astronauts, but it’s balanced by plenty of stories about other female astronauts.
Each chapter is easily understood and well-written. I liked how the author made the women interesting and understandable. It’s not just a story where there is information and it’s presented blandly. Instead, it’s told in a bouncy way that drew me in.
I’m glad I read this book. I’ve wanted to know more about female astronauts and the space program, so this was a perfect piece to add to that puzzle. If you’re interested in the full story of space, this is one book you won’t want to miss.

I found a handful of typos in this book, but I really enjoyed learning about women astronauts, many of whom I'd never heard of. I also enjoyed getting some background on the Mercury 13 and the space race.
June 26, 2018
How have I been so into the space race a d never known about the Mercury 13? (Probably because men are trash.) This is a great primer that honors all the women with the Right Stuff, and I'm going to read it to my daughter.

Started reading this aloud with my daughter during Women's History Month, and it started off well. However, most of the 23 entries read like encyclopedia entries, or perhaps a middle school report. My middle schooler complained that she got lost in the words at times. Editing was a problem also, with several errors spotted over the course of the book. On the plus side, now she really wants to learn more about Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman in space.
Disclaimer - I haven't read any other "Women of Action" series books. Recommended as a reference, or source material for school reports. I can't think of any young adults that would enjoy reading this cover to cover.

This book is listed in our local library as a Young Adult book, perhaps because of its simplicity; but it’s easily enjoyable by readers of all ages. The actual writing itself is a little stilted, making it sometimes difficult to get into a smooth reader’s flow, but if you are interested in achievement of women, the essence will send you into orbit!
Women In Space profiles 23 pioneers and provides terrific basics that will leave you wanting to know more and conveniently, the book also provides sidebars of additional information and suggests further reading with references including internet links. The stories demonstrate the vital role women have played in the quest for scientific understanding and ignite a flame of interest in space programs for all readers.
Divided into four sections: The Apollo 13 Women, Cosmonauts, American Astronauts, and World Astronauts, it includes Eileen Collins, born in Elmira, New York in 1956, graduated from Syracuse University in 1978, who became the first woman to command the space shuttle; Peggy Whitson, who logged more than a year in orbit aboard the International Space Station; and Mae Jemison, the first African American woman in space; as well as astronauts from Japan, Canada, Italy, South Korea, France, and more.
The book is filled with fact and also dotted with interesting anecdotes such as when the first African American female astronaut, Mae Jemison, who loved astronomy and science fiction stories as a girl told her kindergarten teacher she wanted to be a scientist, her teacher said, “You mean a nurse.”
These women are “SHEroes”…the names and stories of whom we all should be familiar.
I encourage you to pick up a copy of this book and be inspired and proud of women’s stories. It will help you understand the reasons why Zonta International chooses to award (35) US$10,000 Fellowships annually to women pursuing Ph.D./doctoral degrees in aerospace engineering and space sciences, to be used at any university or college offering accredited post-graduate courses and degrees in these fields.

American astronauts, flaunting the “right stuff” have presented an mage of strength, adventure and machismo. Women have largely been excluded.
Russia, in a cold war space race against the US , beat the United States to space with Sputnik, followed by a dog (showing the ability for a short time of sustaining life in space). The put the first man in space and the first woman in space. But it was 19 years before they sent a woman to space again.
A group of 13 US female astronauts were chosen and trained for flight, but none made the trip. The first US woman in space was Sally Ride. “Ride, Sally,Ride!”
This book elaborates the achievements of the many Russian and US pilots and scientists who made space their part-time home. It details their many firsts, and seconds. It describes the expansion of space exploration to include other nations.
It honors those who perished in failed missions and celebrates the many accomplishments. It also follows the trend from nationalistic one-up-manship to global cooperation and commerce. NASA launches have been replaced by commercial flights and space tourism.
It is a comprehensive history of space flight abd the women who contributed. If it had one failing, it is in the comprehension, providing mission numbers, dates and times which makes the writing a bit dry and mechanical.
For readers interested in that data, in undoubtedly helps not to have to search footnotes for it, but it dies rob the “plot” of its flow and spontaneity.

Women in Space: 23 Stories of First Flights, Scientific Missions, and Gravity-Breaking Adventures is written by Karen Bush Gibson and pays homage to twenty-three amazing women astronauts/cosmonauts who ventured into the Final Frontier. This book is divided into four chapters: The Apollo 13 Women, Cosmonauts, American Astronauts, and World Astronauts.
Gibson has written powerful, riveting, and concise biographies for each and every one of these women astronauts/cosmonauts and advancing scientific frontiers. Gibson has meticulously written and researched the women rather well. It was sobering to read about the Apollo 13 – about the astronauts that may have been. It was also sobering to read about Judith Resnik and Kalpana Chawla their lives to the space program.
All in all, Women in Space: 23 Stories of First Flights, Scientific Missions, and Gravity-Breaking Adventures is a wonderfully written book of mini-biographies about twenty-three amazing astronauts and cosmonauts, who happens to be women. It is a good read and reference book for anyone who wants to learn more about women in history.

Cool idea for a book, but this one just wasn’t great. It started out interesting, but after awhile it all started sounding the same. As others have said, many of the chapters felt like dry Wikipedia articles. I only finished it because I hate not finishing books, but it took me a couple months to muster up enough motivation to get it done. There were also tons of errors that were distracting. (“spac” instead of “space”—really?) Some of the suggested reading materials in the bibliography may be interesting to check out, but I haven’t done that yet. If this book were to be used to assist students in researching one or two astronauts, it could be helpful, but reading the book cover to cover would not appeal to hardly anyone.

There’s so much more to tell
I’m 70 and a long-time space exploration enthusiast. I was excited to read about the lives and careers of female astronauts. But this book is clearly targeted at teen and pre-teen readers. There’s nothing wrong with that but I wish I had known.
For an adult reader, especially a space enthusiast, there is so much more to tell about these brave and accomplished women.
In fact, with each chapter I learned more by reading a Wikipedia entry for the specific astronaut than I did from the book.
While this easy read may encourage pre-teen girls to pursue STEM studies, it is not a complete or nuanced portrayal of these groundbreaking women.

Amazing! I enjoyed reading about the many women that have been to space. Before reading this book, I only knew about two of them. I had never heard of the Mercury 13; it was interesting learning about women who qualified to be astronauts back during the times when people didn't think it was possible.
The book begins by talking about a few cosmonauts and then goes into a long list of American women that have been to space. The last part is about world astronauts, about several women from other countries that have been to space.
I especially enjoyed reading about Samantha Cristoforetti, the first Italian woman in space. She's probably my favorite because I'm Italian too! :)

Given up on the astronaut Barbie page about 20% through after scanning the index for relevant protips. Honestly, right now I am now watching a lady interviewing from the International Space Station, the link for which I received from this book.
I think that made it worthwhile to borrow this book! I didn't really care for the emotional blah-de-blah of the disappointments it discusses, but I am now stoked to learn more about physics, mathematics and what it really means to move with grace and dignity.

Women in Space is a fascinating book about the first female astronauts. In twenty-three stories it shares “First Flights, Scientific Missions, and Gravity-breaking Adventures. I enjoyed reading about Valentina Tereshkova the first woman in space and then Sally Ride a year after that and how they changed history forever. These women had dreams and when they wanted them to come true they made sure it happened. I learned throughout this book that when you put your mind to something anything is possible.

A good entry book into the subject. A few bios really caught my attention. The notes provided at the end of each chapter are helpful and will provide further reading material with a more in-depth take on the subject at hand.
Some errors in the book, but I'm overlooking them due to this book being a gateway to further reading.

This book was informative, but it's unfortunate that no one took the time to proofread it. The many glaring typographical errors were distracting, including misspelled words, writing "South Korea" as "SouthKorea," and claiming that shuttle speed upon reentry is "25 times the speed of light" when it clearly should have been "25 times the speed of sound."
March 3, 2022
It’s a great collection of short biographies of women with a variety of backgrounds and experiences, but poorly edited and not proofread, which made reading a frustrating experience. I particularly “enjoyed” the sentence describing reentry happening at 25 times the speed of light! In 2022 it is also noticeably outdated.
November 30, 2018
Despite the fact that no one bothered to edit this, or fact check the science at all (see: "reentered the atmosphere at 25 times the speed of light"), it's a good starting point if nothing else.
September 25, 2019
3.5/5 stars. Like other reviewers, I'm disappointed with all the typos in this book. I will say, they did fix the "25 times the speed of light" typo in my edition. This book was fine. I'd recommend it for anyone looking for an introduction to women in space.
January 18, 2021
Reads like encyclopedic entries after a while - I would have preferred it if they had read slightly more personal. There were also some editing issues/typos but the book was a great starter point in introducing a lot of incredible, well-accomplished women.
November 13, 2023
The author did a great job in providing the history of women in space. Well worth the read to learn about the background of humans in space and especially the women involved. The book did read somewhat like an encyclopedia, lots of great facts and a few personal items about each woman.
November 1, 2019
This book was amazing! I loved it because I really love space, and I want to work for N.A.S.A when I grow up just like the 23 women in this book.

A great middle grade read.

I wanted to love a book about both space pioneers and women as I am both a feminist and a space nerd. But the writing in this book is so so shoddy. At one point, Discovery reenters the atmosphere at 25x the speed of light. THE SPEED OF LIGHT. The author is obviously not an engineer or scientist and writes as if this is one of a series of books to inspire middle school girls, but did they not ask any scientists or engineers to fact check this book? Nobody caught the mother of all violations of the laws of physics?
I would have thrown the book across the room except I can't spare my Kindle and I was on an airplane.

Chicago Review Press adds to their “Women of Action” series with this compendium of vignettes about the remarkable women who became part of the space program. (While more than fifty women have now traveled into outer space, 23 are profiled in depth in this book.)
There are many interesting anecdotes in this book, such as the fact that the television series “Star Trek” was originally envisioned by Gene Roddenberry as having a female captain, but sponsors refused to sign on unless the captain was a man. Roddenberry acceded to their demands, and the Enterprise was commanded by William Shatner as James T. Kirk.
Nichelle Nichols, who played Lieutenant Uhura on “Star Trek,” was tempted to leave the show after one year to pursue a Broadway career. She reported that a conversation with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., changed her mind. He urged her to stay, telling her she was providing a vital role model for black children and young women across the country. When “Star Trek” was cancelled, Nichols went around to high schools and colleges to encourage women and minorities to apply to be astronauts. It was she who recruited Guion Bluford, Jr., who became the first African American in space. Mae Jemison also said that Nichols influenced her desire to be an astronaut.
Mae Jemison, the first African American female astronaut, loved astronomy and science fiction stories as a girl. But when she told her kindergarten teacher she wanted to be a scientist, her teacher said, “You mean a nurse.” Somehow, in spite of all the discouragement, Jemison persevered, starting Stanford at just age 16 in the chemical engineering department. She went on to Cornell Medical School, the Peace Corps, and graduate studies in engineering courses before applying successfully to the astronaut program in 1987.
Barbara Morgan’s story would make anyone think twice about a career in space. First, she was chosen as an alternate for Christa McAuliffe to be the first teacher in space. Christa McAuliffe was part of the flight that blew up on television when the space shuttle Challenger exploded on January 28, 1986, killing all of its crew. The Teacher In Space program was discontinued, so then Barbara trained to be an astronaut and graduated her class in 1998. In 2002, she was assigned to a November, 2003 mission on the Columbia shuttle, but it exploded on reentry on February 1, 2003, killing all crew members. You would think she would step back, but she too was persistent, and finally got safely into space and back in 2007 on the Endeavour.
At the end of each chapter, resources are provided to learn more about the woman being profiled. There are also occasional sidebars with supplementary information like listings of types of jobs in space, summaries of other NASA projects, and the effects of space on aging. A glossary and bibliography are appended.
Evaluation: It’s hard not to be inspired by the stories in this book. In spite of a huge amount of discouragement from society, these women vowed to stop at nothing to achieve their dreams.

This is written for children, and it has a good level of detail for a tween, but I had (incorrectly) thought this was a book for adults, and therefore I wanted the stories of the first female astronauts to go into much greater detail than the book did.

Women in Space is a nonfiction novel about the women who have become astronauts and is geared towards young adults.
I picked this up for two reasons, one I fully believe in another life I would have been an astronaut (if math didn’t make me cry and I didn’t get stick with anxiety & depression) and two because I really want to read more about Kalpana who despite being India’s first female astronaut doesn’t have a lot written about her. Even in this book she doesn’t get a lot of pages. Overall I liked it. It’s simplistic in format and covers a wide range of astronauts, and even if some of the women didn’t get full bios they usually popped up in another person’s bio as well.
There were some small editing issues that were a tad annoying to read in a finished book, and the way it’s written makes the work seem a lot of denser than it actually is. I really hated that a lot of bios were structured as: interesting mid career explanation, jump unannounced back to her past, and then move back through her whole career. It would have worked if the first paragraph had explained her importance to the mission or country, and then moved back to her past…but some of these mid career stories lasted several paragraphs and then without warning I’d be reading about something that happened 15 years in the past. It was very discombobulating. It’s not a book that should have taken me longer than a few days, but I had to keep taking breaks due to the writing style and it lasted me over a week.
I do think it has a lot of value as far as educational purposes go for younger readers and there is a lot of great info in it, and not just on the women themselves but also about the space stations and life up there. There are a lot of teachable moments and plenty of extra sources and reading material that can lead to independent study as well.
