      The Case of the Stolen Space Suit - Steve Brezenoff

      Sally Ride

      Sally Ride was born May 26, 1951, in California and attended Stanford University, where she studied physics.

      In 1977, NASA began looking for female astronauts. Sally Ride was one of six women chosen for the job.

      In 1983, Sally Ride became the first American woman to fly in space as an astronaut on a shuttle mission. Her job was to work the robotic arm to help put satellites into space.

      After leaving NASA, Sally Ride became a teacher. She came up with the idea for NASA’s EarthKAM project, which lets students take pictures of Earth using a camera on the International Space Station.

      In 2003, Sally Ride was added to the Astronaut Hall of Fame.

      CHAPTER 1

      Not So Boring Night

      It was Friday night, and Amal Farah lay on the couch in her father’s office at the Capitol City Air and Space Museum. Her history textbook sat on the floor beside the couch. She had a three-day weekend ahead of her, but she was bored and had decided she might as well get her homework out of the way now.

      Dad, Amal said without picking her head up from her pillow, "when are we leaving?" She didn’t like to whine, but sometimes it was necessary. And now was definitely one of those times. She’d been sitting in her father’s office since four o’clock, right after school.

      What? her father, Dr. Ahmed Farah, the museum’s head archivist, replied. His attention was on his computer screen, not on his daughter — nor on the time.

      You said you had to stay a little late, Amal reminded him as she checked the time on her phone, "but it’s almost eight o’clock. I’ve finished all my homework. I’ve texted all my friends. I’ve played ten levels of Fruit Basher on my phone. And on top of all that, I’m starving. When are we going home?"

      Dr. Farah sighed and pulled off his reading glasses. With his thumb and index finger, he rubbed the bridge of his nose. I’m sorry, sweetheart. There’s just a lot going on. I’ve been butting heads with Mr. Mordecai in the Special Collections Division. He’s been just furious about … Dr. Farah stopped himself. "Well, it
