Four Women In Space At The Same Time



Last Monday marked the day when more women than ever before are working in space. Four women will rendezvous at the International Space Station - the largest ever gathering of women in space. It may be just a footnote when people look back in a thousand years but it is possibly the day historians note as the day when gender equality in
spaceflight finally became a reality.

So, who are these women in space making history? Take a look at these remarkable women as Mission STS-131 gets properly underway.

(thanks Robert-John)
