Happy 70th Birthday to Dr. Mae Jemison!

In 1992, Dr. Jemison made history as the first Black woman to travel to space aboard NASA's Space Shuttle Endeavour.

Before becoming an astronaut, she was already a physician and had served as a medical officer with the Peace Corps in West Africa.

Since leaving NASA, she's continued working in science, technology, and education, encouraging more young people, especially girls and students of color, to explore careers in STEM.

Here's to Dr. Mae Jemison, who showed generations of young Black girls that they belong in every space, even beyond Earth!
