This question refers to the text "Sally Ride — The Woman Who Broke the Space Ceiling," and after due analysis we can perform the following change in punctuation in sentence 17:

B. Insert a comma after atmosphere.

<h3>Changing sentence 17</h3>

In the article we are analyzing here, sentence 17 has a punctuation issue. It says, "When the shuttle broke free of Earth’s <u>atmosphere</u> Ride broke through the country’s highest glass ceiling by becoming the first American woman to fly in space." However, a change must be performed.

The sentence begins with a subordinate clause. For that reason, a comma must be placed to separate the subordinate clause from the main one. Since the clause ends with the word "atmosphere," we should place a comma right after it.

That means the correct sentence would be: "When the shuttle broke free of Earth’s <u>atmosphere</u>, Ride broke through the country’s highest glass ceiling by becoming the first American woman to fly in space."
