Did you know space suits weren’t originally made to fit women?

The story of space suits reflects a bigger picture: why diverse representation in STEM truly matters.

1978 – NASA selected its first female astronauts… but suits were still built for men.
1999 – The smallest suit size was discontinued, shrinking opportunity.
2019 – The first planned all-female spacewalk was postponed due to sizing issues.
2023 – NASA launched new space suits designed for all body types—finally making space for everyone.

The future of exploration is inclusive, and women in STEM are making it happen.

- Mae Jemison (1992) – First African American woman to travel to space
- Barbara Morgan (2007) – First educator astronaut to teach from space
- Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson (1961) – Pioneering NASA mathematicians who made early spaceflight possible
- Christina Koch & Jessica Meir (2019) - Perform the first all-female spacewalk
