The Astronaut Scholarship Foundation website has her attending the 2021 Astronaut Hall of Fame induction in November, but not sure if she is doing the Space Rendezvous. That may offer a chance to get her to sign the book. Perhaps Jonathan will be there as well. |

The website has specified that she will be doing a book signing.If anyone here is planning on attending, I'd love to get a few things signed if you're willing to ship them to me. I will be happy to pay a bonus on top of the price of everything. |

More details about the Novaspace Galleries event: Author, speaker, former astronaut, and retired US Air Force colonel Eileen Collins will be signing autographs on October 7th in Tucson, AZ at the Crystal Event Center at 610 W. Prince Road. Come and meet the inspirational first American woman to pilot a spacecraft, and to command the Space Shuttle.Entry to the event is free, but there will be a charge for books & photos, and for autographs on any items other than her latest book purchased through us. Eileen will sign her latest book "Through the Glass Ceiling to the Stars: The Story of the First American Woman to Command a Space Mission" for free with paid purchase of that book from Novaspace. This book may be purchased at the event or through our pre-order webpage (to be posted in the future). The signing fee for all other items will be $75 each. Novaspace will also have a mail-in signing for those who cannot attend the public event, with the same pricing: free with paid purchase of her latest book from us, and $75 each for all other items. Details, available photos, and ordering information will be posted in the future. |

Great news! I thoroughly enjoyed ‘Through the Glass Ceiling...' and I'll be delighted to add a signed copy to my collection. The opportunities to obtain autographed items straight from the source have massively dried up over the past few years, this is an exciting event, thanks Novaspace!! |
