First Woman in Space

First Woman in Space

Sally Ride, a distinguished astronaut, eminent athlete, author, advocate, and exceptional physicist, was commemorated at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on the 40th anniversary of a pivotal event in American history.

"The Legacy of Sally Ride: The First American Woman in Space" celebrated her remarkable achievements. Ride's life, tragically shortened by pancreatic cancer in 2012 at 61, left an indelible mark on many.

NASA Deputy Administrator and former astronaut Pam Melroy reflected on Ride's impact, noting her as an inspiration to countless women, symbolising the shattering of the ultimate glass ceiling. Her historic journey into space transcended mere accomplishment; she represented and resonated with many.

On June 18, 1983, as part of the STS-7 crew aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger from Kennedy's Launch Complex 39A, Ride broke through America's gender barrier in human spaceflight. At just 32, she also became the youngest American to venture into space. This day, June 16, is thus celebrated as the anniversary of the first woman in space, marking Ride's historic journey and enduring legacy.
