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?" -- $c Amazon.com 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 650 0 $a Women astronauts $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Meteors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Manned space flight $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Interplanetary voyages $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Literature & Fiction. $2 local 655 7 $a Science Fiction & Fantasy. $2 local 800 1 $a Kowal, Mary Robinette, $d 1969- $t Lady Astronaut novels ; $v bk. 2. 941 $a 27 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409031821.0 952 $l CJPC482 $d 20240202014721.0 952 $l CPPC926 $d 20231111012052.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012025943.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230202011049.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909051206.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728013230.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210901010110.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722060831.0 952 $l BWPD851 $d 20210714020926.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210707011835.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210202014604.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20200806013849.0 952 $l XPPC367 $d 20200731011503.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20200130012245.0 952 $l D8PD522 $d 20191211014107.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20191107013450.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20190830010255.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717035919.0 952 $l JYPB641 $d 20190621010556.0 952 $l AXPF626 $d 20190618013727.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20181127014743.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20181026010627.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006120954.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20181002012449.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20180907012209.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20180901010343.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4CF3C1FAADAC11E8B097846B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b JUHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
