Welcome to Litsy!

If you‘re reading this for insights on the Apollo 13 mission don‘t. However if you want fun stories about astronaut training from a guy with a laid back attitude this is worth a read. I loved the stories about the different places they traveled to study geology before going to the moon. I also appreciated his thoughts about climate change at the end too.

My October pick for #12BooksOf2024 is Apollo 13, by Jim Lovell and Jeffrey Kluger. A fascinating, suspenseful read. I was inspired to watch the movie as well, and that was also great.

Women in STEM is something I will represent in my future classroom. This book does a great job at empowering young girls with the story of how Catherine saved the Apollo 13 space mission!
