Part of the problem is that there was nothing significant, ground-breaking, or unique about the ‘spaceflight.’

Indeed, a trip to the Earth’s upper atmosphere is hardly ‘space.’

For decades women have been going into actual space, orbiting the earth, performing actual science.

This was nothing more than celebrities spending some of their considerable wealth on an expensive joyride – having nothing to do with benefiting women.
