Sally Ride was the first American woman in space, flying aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger on two missions: STS-7 in 1983 and STS-41-G in 1984. During these missions, she conducted scientific experiments, including working with the Spacelab, and helped deploy satellites. Ride's contributions were significant for advancing our understanding of space and promoting the role of women in science and engineering. She later became an advocate for science education and authored several books on space and science for children.
