2023 is a big year for women in space flight with historic anniversaries and landmark announcements coming up, so we want to start to highlight some female Space Flight Pioneers and today we talk about Wally Funk. To do this we’re joined by journalist and broadcaster Sue Nelson who wrote the wonderful book: “Wally Funk’s Race For Space”
