Joan Goodwin has been obsessed with the stars for as long as she can remember so when she is selected in the summer of 1980 to become part of NASA's space shuttle program it is a dream come true. Soon after beginning training at Houston's Johnson Space Center she feels incredibly driven to be one of the few people to go to space . . .
An epic, fast-paced, and emotional novel set against the backdrop of the 1980s space shuttle program, Atmosphere is about the extraordinary lengths we go to live and love beyond our limits.
“When you pick up a Taylor Jenkins Reid novel, there are three things that are almost guaranteed: an exceptional woman at its center, a gut-punching twist toward the end and a journey so transportive you’ll look up from your page with a kind of shock." -- The Globe and Mail
