The Stars Don't Look Bigger, But They

So I Decided On Science When I Was In College.

I Never Went Into Physics Or The Astronaut Corps To Become A Role Model. But After My First Flight, It Became Clear To Me That I Was One. And I Began To Understand The Importance Of That To People. Young Girls Need To See Role Models In Whatever Careers They May Choose, Just So They Can Picture Themselves Doing Those Jobs Someday. You Can't Be What You Can't See.

The Pressure Suit Helps If Something Goes Wrong During Launch Or Re-entry - Astronauts Have A Way To Parachute Off The Shuttle. The Suits Protect You From Loss Of Pressure In Case Of Emergency.

I Have Been A Bit Of A Risk-taker All My Life.

I Suggest Taking The High Road And Have A Little Sence Of Humour And Let Things Roll Off Your Back. I Think That's Very Important.
