Few can claim the varied background of award-winning author Stephanie Osborn, the Interstellar Woman of Mystery.
Veteran  of more than 20 years in the civilian space program, as well as various  military space defense programs, she worked on numerous space shuttle  flights and the International Space Station, and counts the training of  astronauts on her resumé. Her space experience also includes Spacelab  and ISS operations, variable star astrophysics, Martian aeolian  geophysics, radiation physics, and nuclear, biological, and chemical  weapons effects.  Stephanie holds graduate and undergraduate degrees in  four sciences: astronomy, physics, chemistry and mathematics, and she is  "fluent" in several more, including geology and anatomy. In addition  she possesses a license of ministry, has been a duly sworn, certified  police officer, and is a National Weather Service certified storm  spotter.
Her travels have taken her to the top of Pikes Peak, across  the world’s highest suspension bridge, down gold mines, in the footsteps  of dinosaurs, through groves of giant Sequoias, and even to the  volcanoes of the Cascade Range in the Pacific Northwest, where she was  present for several phreatic eruptions of Mount St. Helens.
Now  retired from space work, Stephanie has trained her sights on writing.  She has authored, co-authored, or contributed to some 40+ books,  including the celebrated science-fiction mystery, Burnout: The mystery  of Space Shuttle STS-281. She is the co-author of the Cresperian Saga  book series, and has written the critically acclaimed Displaced  Detective Series, described as "Sherlock Holmes meets The X-Files," and  its pulp-bestselling prequel series, Gentleman Aegis, the very first  book of which won a Silver Falchion award. She has dabbled in  paranormal/horror as well, releasing the ebook novella El Vengador,  based on a true story. Her recent popular science book, Rock and Roll, a  discussion of the New Madrid fault and its historic quakes, was a  multiple-genre bestseller! It was followed with the equally-popular Kiss  Your Ash Goodbye, an explanation of the Yellowstone supervolcano.  Currently she's launching into the unknown with the Division One series,  her take on the urban legend of the people who show up at UFO  sightings, alien abductions, etc. to make things...disappear.
In  addition to her writing work, the Interstellar Woman of Mystery now  happily "pays it forward," teaching math and science through numerous  media including radio, podcasting and public speaking, as well as  working with SIGMA, the science-fiction think tank.

The Mystery continues.

K.T.  Hunter is a lifelong fan of reading just about anything she can get her  hands on, from science fiction (her first love) to science fact, from  alternate history to art history and true crime. She credits her  parents' encouragement of her creativity and their own love of Star Trek  as the spark that lit her literary fires. She received her B.S. in  Computer Science from UT-Chattanooga in 1993 and worked as a computer  instructor and software developer in the insurance industry for the  better part of two decades. Her first novel, 20 Million Leagues Over the Sea, the first novel in the steampunk adventure series The Nemo Paradox,  was published independently in 2015. K.T. grew up in the hills of East  Tennessee, and now she and her husband, T. D. Raufson, reside in  Chattanooga.
