To celebrate IWD here's a photo of my astronaut friend Samantha Cristoforetti, the first Italian woman to fly into space and do a spacewalk, and the first European woman to command the International Space Station.

The closeup is part of a photo I took at pad 39A of Kennedy Space Center on Apr 21, 2022, a few days prior to launching with her ride to space at left. Her ride at KSC is the red one.

Outdoor day scene of a paved road, at a side of which is a metallic net fence. On the road stands a woman in her mid forties with short black hair, in a blue pilot flight suit. Close to the woman a red convertible car can be partially seen.

Beyond the fence is a white rocket on a launch pad that has a black service tower next to it. To the right of the pad are a white water tank tower and a crane. Close to the woman a red convertible car can be partially seen. A similar blue car can be partially seen on the left.
