On a cold spring night in 1952, a huge meteorite impact destroyed most of the East Coast of the United States, including Washington, DC. The ensuing climate crisis and environmental catastrophe will make the planet uninhabitable in the near future, as it once did in the age of the dinosaurs. The looming threat requires a radical acceleration of the space program in hopes of migrating and colonizing space. Elma York's experience as a pilot and mathematician in the Air Force Women's Pilot Service qualifies her to participate in the project to land a man on the moon as a computer scientist. But Elma does not immediately understand why the large number of experienced and qualified female pilots participating in the program are unable to fly into space. Elma's desire to become the first lady astronaut is so strong that inner demons, past psychological traumas, and even society's most established stereotypes don't stand a chance against her.
