First All-Female Spacewalking Team Makes History

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — The world’s first female spacewalking team is making history high above Earth. NASA astronauts Christina Koch and Jessica Meir worked outside the International Space Station on Friday, the first time in a half-century of spacewalking that a woman floated out with a male crewmate. They replaced a broken part of the station’s power grid. America’s first female spacewalker, Kathy Sullivan, says it’s good to finally have enough women in the astronaut corps for this to happen.
