Overview
After rigorous testing in 1961, a small group of skilled female pilots are asked to step aside when only men are selected for spaceflight.
Besides the injustice of their story what really stood out to me was the fire and spirit that you could still see in the eyes of the women. It’s really striking to see people at their age still have that kind of passion for something. This was a fascinating story that was told in a very interesting manner.
