If It Wasn't For The Women's Movement,

I Think It's Important For Little Girls Growing Up, And Young Women, To Have One In Every Walk Of Life. So From That Point Of View, I'm Proud To Be A Role Model!

After The Challenger Accident, Nasa Put In A Lot Of Time To Improve The Safety Of The Space Shuttle To Fix The Things That Had Gone Wrong.

Well, We Spend An Awful Lot Of Our Time Working And Doing Experiments. It's Very Busy Up On The Shuttle.

Eventually Private Enterprise Will Be Able To Send People Into Orbit, But I Suspect Initially It's Going To Have To Be With Nasa's Help. Whether It's Going To Be A Consortium Or One Entity Remains To Be Seen. I Could Be Wrong. I Could Be One Of The Old Fogies! Rocket Science Is Tough, And Rockets Have A Way Of Failing. It Happens. A Company Has To Be Willing To Bear The Risk Of Its Rocket Failing. It's A Very Large Capital Investment.

I Would Like To Be Remembered As Someone Who Was Not Afraid To Do What She Wanted To Do, And As Someone Who Took Risks Along The Way In Order To Achieve Her Goals.
