Logan Sidwell, A Local Author and Former Space Center Staff Member, Named one of Five Notable Reads in Speculative Fiction for 2026

 

Yesterday, the Utah Book Awards named me one of Utah's five Notable Reads in Speculative Fiction for 2026. I was joined by friends from my writing world, my engineering world, and even a college roommate. Sharing my book with others has been a joy, and the surprise messages from readers have given me all the energy I need to keep going. Here's to hoping I get to have another celebration like this soon! Next time I'll really put up a fight against Brandon Sanderson.

Congrats to NASA and SpaceX on the successful launch and docking of Crew-13 to the International Space Station. Their flight was the fastest ground-to-docking flight to the ISS of an American spacecraft (the Russians still have us beat). Below are ROSCOSMOS cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov, NASA astronauts Luke Delaney and Jessica Watkins (Pilot and Commander), and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut and Mission Specialist Joshua Kutryk. The flight lasted less than 8 hours aboard the spacecraft "Grace."
