This is not a NASA Website. You might learn something. It's YOUR space agency. Get involved. Take it back. Make it work—for YOU.

NASA Watch: Your support is needed, support independent journalism.
Thank you for whatever support you can provide. We recently launched this upgraded website which will allow us to expand our coverage. But the design and hosting come at cost, as does adding new services. We're also going looking to add new journalists as we expand.
We'll send a verification code to %EMAIL%.
We have never come close to having 50 people in space simultaneously. That is what I would see as a step forward.
She literally didn’t mean 50 at once – but you’re correct; I hope I see 50 in space at once too in my lifetime. Not holding my breath, though. I believe the record is 13 – 7 on a Shuttle, 3 in a Soyuz and 3 on the ISS or Mir. Happened a few times during the late ’90s and the early 2000’s 🙂
Personally I would rather see an -average_ of 50 people in LEO continuously, working and vacationing, then a few people on Mars for a few weeks every few years.
I interpreted her meaning as a totality; Wikipedia says 59 women have been in space.
I would not have a problem with seeing her blasted into space
