Because I Was A Tennis

But Even In Elementary School And Junior High, I Was Very Interested In Space And In The Space Program.

I Find Myself Looking Around For Other New, Interesting Opportunities To Dive Into.

The Astronauts Who Came In With Me In My Astronaut Class - My Class Had 29 Men And 6 Women - Those Men Were All Very Used To Working With Women.

The Fact That I Was Going To Be The First American Woman To Go Into Space Carried Huge Expectations Along With It.

You Know, I Go Around The Country A Lot.
