NASA Shirt Girls: A Tribute to Sally Ride

When it comes to space exploration, few names are more iconic than Sally Kristen Ride. An American astronaut and physicist, she was part of NASA Astronaut Group 8, the first class of astronauts to include women. Born in Los Angeles on May 26, 1951, Ride's journey to the stars began with her graduation from Stanford University in 1973.

Ride's impressive academic credentials included a Bachelor of Science degree in physics and a Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature, followed by a Master of Science degree in physics and a Doctor of Philosophy in physics. Her research on the interaction of X-rays with the interstellar medium earned her a Ph.D. in 1978.

In 1979, Ride became the ground-based capsule communicator (CapCom) for the second and third Space Shuttle flights. She played a crucial role in developing the robotic arm of the Space Shuttle. Her hard work paid off when she was selected as a mission specialist astronaut in 1983. On June 18, 1983, Ride made history by becoming the first American woman to fly in space.

Ride's remarkable achievements are not limited to her time in space. She was also an advocate for women and minorities in STEM fields. Her legacy continues to inspire generations of young people interested in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
