NASA's first all-female spacewalk on March 29: Everything you need to know

The ground support will be provided by flight director Mary Lawrence and Kristen Facciol in the US space agency's Johnson Space Center in Texas. 'I just found out that I'll be on console providing support for the FIRST ALL FEMALE SPACEWALK with @AstroAnnimal and @Astro_Christina and I can not contain my excitement,' Facciol said in a tweet. NASA, which is celebrating March as the Women's History Month, has a dedicated page for information on women working in various fields such as engineering, space, mathematics, etc at the space agency. The all-female spacewalk announcement comes as on the heels on International Women's Day, which is celebrated on March 8 every year. To recall, NASA astronaut, Sally Ride was the first American woman in space. She launched in space with four other crew mates on mission STS-7 in 1983.
