  6. I never saw this picture of #SallyRide and #KathrynSullivan synchronising their watches before the lift-off of STS-41-G. Christina Koch shared it on her Instagram and I absolutely loved it. It wasn't uploaded to Commons so I did it

    …"Although there have been over 600 people in space, there has never been an openly LGBTQ+ #astronaut … it's important for us to examine the industry's historical treatment of LGBTQ+ people, and to think about how we as an industry are going to change going forward"…

  10. There's an under-reported detail that I noticed while reading about the late #SallyRide on Wikipedia, on this 40th anniversary of her spaceflight.

    Sally seems to has a sister named Bear.

    Presumably she was called Bear Ride for some part of her life which is pretty cool.
