Paperback. Every journey to the Moon starts with a yes. Mira's starts with a test.Mira Okafor builds rockets that fly exactly as high as her math says they will. Then her mom comes running across the field with a letter. She's been shortlisted to command the first-ever rotation of families to Shackleton Base, at the Moon's south pole.There's only one catch. The whole family has to qualify, and that means Mira too.Suddenly Mira is being weighed, measured and watched. She has to pass a swim test in a soaked flight suit and sneakers, answer questions from a doctor who sees more than she wants him to, and survive a week at a desert field station with the other candidate families. One of them is Dae-Jung, a boy who fixes things with his hands and doesn't seem impressed by anything she reads.When a storm turns a dry riverbed into a roaring flood in the middle of the night, everything Mira knows about maps, rocks and rules gets put to the test. So does the one thing she hasn't told anybody, not even her mom.Because Mira wants to go to the Moon more than anything in the world. And she's scared.The Shortlist is the first book in the Origins trilogy, the prequel to The Last Habitat Module. It shows how Mira and her mother got to Shackleton Base in the first place.
