Today on #InternationalWomensDay I want to recommend this song my dear colleague A., herself an accomplished spacecraft engineer, made about #WomenInSpace and the upcoming #Artemis 2 mission. She would much appreciate you leaving a like, I know.
It’s an inspirational song and I hope it’ll encourage more women to aim for the stars, and go show the world what you’re made of.

When I found this group illustration of women in science I was pleased to know that I knew 8 of the 12. How many do you know?
I'll research the 4 that I do not know so I can drop them into conversations, just like I dropped this photo of Mae Jemison & #NichelleNichols from the set of #StarTrek TNG in Social Media on a regular basis.

Es ist schon eine legendäre Anekdote: Die Nasa fragte 1983 die Astronautin Sally Ride, ob 100 Tampons für eine einwöchige Mission ausreichen würden.
#OnThisDay, 18 Jun 1983, Sally Ride is the first woman to be a US astronaut, on board the Challenger shuttle.
A new documentary, 'Sally' (2025, Cristina Costantini) explores her achievements and why she felt she had to hide her sexuality.

"All-women/all-female astronauts" Yay! But remember we still have these issues to deal with: reproductive rights, gender-based pay inequality, gender-based violence, fossil fuel CO2 emissions, etc.

NASA is shutting down its Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) programs following Trump’s executive order.
Employees must snitch any DEIA activities within 10 days or face the new nazi order consequences.
This crackdown on diversity efforts has from the book parallels with fascist regime that sought to suppress equity and inclusion. #DEI #NASA #Politics #History #WomenInSpace #fascism

Kalpana Chawla in her short life span of only 40 years taught children especially girls to dream, to believe, to have faith & to toil to make one's dream come alive. She made true the adage that "Nothing is Impossible" to achieve if you strive towards it with complete sincerity, compassion & discipline. Kalpana Chawla and her fellow crew members finally became one with the stars shining brightly in the vastness up above.
