Be launched back into the 1980s and meet Judy Resnik: NASA’s second female astronaut.
Who was this brilliant engineer, who—despite her genius—was so often reduced by the media to nothing more than her looks?
“You’re too cute to be an astronaut” is a journey through time and space. From Judy’s application to the Space Shuttle program, the rigorous selection process, and the media frenzy surrounding the first women in space, to the nail-biting launch of Challenger. It’s January 28, 1986, a freezing day. And then this space journey suddenly takes an unexpected turn.
Actress Judy Lijdsman intertwines the story of NASA astronaut Judy Resnik with her own personal experiences in a comedic and moving stand-up biography. A dazzling one-woman show full of space facts, colorful characters, shocking anecdotes, and—between the lines—an urgent call for equality.
