This illustrated cover features Dr. Sally Ride in her iconic blue NASA flight suit, complete with mission patch, name tag, and U.S. flag patch, holding her white space helmet under one arm. Behind her looms the Space Shuttle Challenger on the launchpad, with clouds and subtle smoke suggesting imminent liftoff. The bold red-and-blue title “Sally Ride” reinforces her prominence as a trailblazing figure in aerospace history.
