"Wow---Sally Ride was the first woman astronaut in space---" SALLY RIDE PIONEER "A woman in space---wow---maybe someday I could do that, too--- even go all the way to the moon" "Don't worry, Teddy---if I go to the moon in a rocket---I'll take you with me" "You've got <i>the right stuff</i>--and I've got the <i>the right stuffing</i>"
Not to diminish Sally Ride at all because her achievements were incredible, but *third woman in space (and it was was almost 25 years before this strip, so I think it’s Gilchrist who was shocked that women can go to space, not Nancy, for whom that was a fact her whole life at this point)
