Hello friends of the community 
Sally Ride was born in Los Angeles on May 26, 1951. She had a well-off childhood and quickly stood out for her intelligence. She studied at Stanford where she graduated in Physics and in 1978 she received her doctorate for her studies of X-rays in the interstellar medium.
Her astronaut career began when she signed up for a NASA volunteer program in the late 1970s. This opened the doors to her space career. She stood out so much that she was chosen to travel to space, becoming the first American woman to do so and the third in the world.
She was able to realize her childhood dreams and collaborate with the development of humanity at a time when this was very difficult for women. We must always dream and fight to achieve what we long for despite the difficulties that may arise along the way.
Never stop fighting for what you want, you may even reach the stars.
