内容简介

改编电影2017年初上映，不为人知的非裔女性英雄，将人类太空史推向新高度

早在阿姆斯特朗漫步在月球之前，NASA里就有着一群被称之为「人体电脑」的女性数学家们，用着铅笔与计算机，默默算出了那些最后化为太空船、飞行轨道的重要公式。没有她们的帮助，太空竞赛的结局，甚至是人类太空发展史，可能都将不是今天的模样。

本书就是关于这群没能被聚光灯照亮的女性们的故事，尤其聚焦在几位非裔杰出女性的卓越表现。对应大时代的氛围，从二战到冷战与太空竞赛，为读者揭开她们的工作与挑战，这太空发展史鲜为人知的折页。

The uplifting, amazing true story—a New York Times bestseller

This edition of Margot Lee Shetterly’s acclaimed book is perfect for young readers. It is the powerful story of four African-American female mathematicians at NASA who helped achieve some of the greatest moments in our space program. Now a major motion picture starring Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, Janelle Monae, Kirsten Dunst, and Kevin Costner.

Before John Glenn orbited the earth, or Neil Armstrong walked on the moon, a group of dedicated female mathematicians known as “human computers” used pencils, slide rules, and adding machines to calculate the numbers that would launch rockets, and astronauts, into space.

This book brings to life the stories of Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, Katherine Johnson, and Christine Darden, who lived through the Civil Rights era, the Space Race, the Cold War, and the movement for gender equality, and whose work forever changed the face of NASA and the country.

“The perfect impetus for discussion on a host of important historical themes germane to the 1950s, such as gender roles, racial prejudice and segregation, and scientific exploration… Middle-schoolers will find their story, here in a young readers’ edition of Shetterly’s 2016 adult book, engaging and inspirational.” (Booklist)
