Lee sobre la primera astronauta Latina en el espacio, Ellen Ochoa, quien se encuentra entre los héroes hispanos y latinos más innovadores e icónicos que han dado forma a nuestra cultura y al mundo en esta apasionante biografía escrita por Claudia Romo Edelman, perfecta para los fanáticos de la serie ¿Quién fue? (Who Was?)

Conoce a Ellen Ochoa, antes solo una niña de Los Ángeles, California. La nieta de inmigrantes de México, Ellen siguió la carrera de física en su juventud, y alcanzo recibir una maestría y doctorado en ingeniería eléctrica de Stanford University. En el 1993, Ellen se convirtió en la primera astronauta Latina en el espacio. Ya retirada, Ellen ha trabajado como directora del Johnson Space Center, defensora por las mujeres y otras minorías en los campos STEM, y fue incluida en el Salón de la Fama de Astronautas

Hispanic Star celebra con orgullo a los héroes latinos e hispanos que han hecho grandes contribuciones a la cultura estadounidense y representan una fuerza indiscutible para labrar su futuro. Si puedes verlo, puedes serlo.
