Recs if you like Reaching for the Moon: The Autobiography of NASA Mathematician Katherine Johnson...

no matter where you live, we all see the same moon, even if it’s day, the moon is still there saying 🌝 so here is a list of a bunch of books with the word “moon” in the title

taking suggestions!

I want this list to highlight women and gender minorities* who wrote about astrophysics/astronomy, or their experience studying it. I also included some biographies because a lot of the history of women+ in physics was (and still is) ignored, even though their contributions are phenomenal :)

I could change the list to include all of the branches of physics (instead of just astrophysics) but I only had astrophysics books in my personal library hehehehe

since it's women's history month here is my ever growing TBR and admiration for women who have come before me. You are invaluable and inspiring to say the least ♡

Non-fiction books that discuss the history, science, beauty, and beliefs surrounding the moon.
