Wally Funk's Race for Space
As seen in the major Netflix documentary 'Mercury 13' A Daily Mail Book of the Week In 1961, Wally Funk was the youngest of thirteen American female pilots in the Woman in Space programme. Her mission was to become one of the first women astronauts. But a combination of politics and prejudice meant the programme was abruptly cancelled. Neither Wally nor the other pilots ever made it into space. Now approaching eighty, Wally is joined by fellow space enthusiast Sue Nelson as she races to make her giant leap before it's too late. They travel across the United States and Europe - taking in NASA's mission control in Houston and Spaceport America in New Mexico, where Wally's ride into space awaits - meeting with female astronauts and trailblazers along the way. Touching on the Space Race and women's achievements in aviation, this is the remarkable story of a courageous pioneer who could have been the first woman in space.

Hudson
While Hudson was first settled around 1872, the community's namesake Isaac Washington Hudson Sr.'s family did not permanently move here until 1878. By 1884, the new town of Hudson had been platted, and the community's first post office and school were built. In its infancy, the community grew fast and residents relied upon the lands and Gulf waters for their livelihood. With the fast-growing community came the establishment of numerous sponging and fishing businesses in addition to farms. The banks of the big Hudson Spring were becoming the center of commerce, and there the resident businessmen constructed their docks, fish houses, mercantile stores, hotels, and more. Today, with a development on every corner and vacant lands becoming extinct, it is extremely hard to imagine those times. Little of this past remains, and in its place the bulldozers are paving Hudson with progress.
Hiding In Plain Sight
Just before her last year of school, Hilary watches a new family move in next door. It doesn't take long for her best friend Shannon to interrupt her lurking and force her to introduce herself. The Mom and Dad are oddly formal. Alex, the little sister is a brat and Ben, the son, is hot with a capital H. Later that night, Hilary watches as Ben and his father walk across their back yard and then disappear into thin air. She can still hear them talking, but their voices sound distorted and tinny. She huddles in the shadows until they are done unloading weird electrical equipment from their invisible storeroom. School starts and weird things begin to happen. Strange purple lights fill the air, weaving and bobbing over the bog behind their homes as if searching for something. Ben realizes he needs Hilary's help if he wants to escape the aliens after his family. The Hurlingen are on their way to Earth and it's going to take almost everyone they know, to stop these enemy aliens from kidnapping Ben and Alex. Space ships, invisibility belts, and a classic car, all help the aliens next door to hide in plain sight.
