+{{< figures/image name=cover >}}
+
+{{< tess >}} got me this book for Christmas 2022 on a whim at a local bookshop. It's a series of essays -- reflections
+and examinations -- of the author's time parcipating in one of NASA's Mars analog missions on Mauna Kea, Hawai'i. She is
+a lesbian and, as luck would have it, lived in the same part of town that Tess and I do! It was fun to read little
+anecdotes about her and her (ex) wife stopping in at shops that we frequent ourselves.
+
+I enjoyed reading about her experiences working with NASA in the context of an analog mission. It sounds like they went
+above and beyond to make the mission as close to a real Mars experience as possible, despite being firmly on Earth.
+Communication with mission control was artificially delayed 20 minutes, as it would be on Mars. Going outside required
+putting on bulky spacesuits. And participants were isolated together for six months.
+
+She also has several essays in which she reflected on the politics and cost of spaceflight, and what it means for humans
+to explore and exist in space.
+
+Support a local bookshop and get it from [Folio Books](https://www.foliosf.com/book/9781250796660). 🙂
