Sally Ride was one of the first America’ s women astronauts. She became interested in the space program in 1962 when astronaut John Glenn orbited the earth in his Mercury space capsule. Sally was then ten years old at the time, but she remembered the launch and the landing as if they happened yesterday: She became a space fan. She quickly learned the name of every astronaut of the US (there were only eight of them in 1962), the date of every launch, and the name and number of every spacecraft. She could tell the speed of light ( 186,300 miles per second), the distance to the moon (238, 860 miles), and the names of the three nearest stars. By the time she was 16, Sally had decided to become an astrophysicist, a scientist who studies space. She finished higher education with a PHD in astrophysics from Stanford University.
