July 16, 1999, 08:54 p.m. Stellar achievements land Eileen Collins leading mission role By MARK CARREAU If it was only a matter of time before a woman assumed command of an American space mission, then it was likely a foregone conclusion that the job would go to astronaut Eileen Collins. Driven by a lifelong love of flying, the 42-year-old Air Force colonel and test pilot spent the last 20 years overcoming a series of obstacles and professional challenges to position herself for a spot in aviation history. Monday, on the eve of the 30th anniversary of man's first walk on the moon, Collins will scramble aboard the space shuttle Columbia to set a milestone of her own and prepare her crew to blast off from the Kennedy Space Center with NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. With the exception of Russian cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova's 71-hour solo voyage in a small Vostok capsule in 1963, no woman has ever claimed dominion over a spacecraft. None has ever assumed command responsibility for the safety of an entire crew of space travelers, nor for the success of a mission as complex as Columbia's. Collins' crew will deploy the $1.55 billion Chandra X-ray Observatory, a large space telescope designed for the study of stellar explosions, galactic collisions and black holes. Together with its propulsion system, the Chandra observatory is the largest payload ever delivered to space by a shuttle.

55. Eileen Collins Remarks At The White House On Being Named First United States Woman To CommandA Manned Space Flight by Colonel eileen collins United States Astronaut http://gos.sbc.edu/c/collins.html

Remarks At The White House On Being Named First United States Woman To Command A Manned Space Flight by Colonel Eileen Collins United States Astronaut, Commander, STS-93 March 5, 1998 Mr. President, Mrs. Clinton, and Administrator Goldin, I just can't tell you how much of an honor it is for me to be here today. And I'm just so excited about this opportunity that I have to command a space shuttle flight. And I want to tell you that since I was a child I've dreamed about space. I've admired pilots, astronauts, and I've admired explorers of all kinds. And it was only a dream of mine that I would someday be one of them and have these kinds of opportunities. Throughout my life I've studied the universe that we live in and I've just been fascinated by astronomy and all kinds of science. And again, it was only a dream of mine that someday I'd have the opportunity to be part of such an important astronomy mission as this one, the Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility. And throughout my life, and in particular, in my career in the U.S. military and with NASA, I've been given important jobs and responsibilities, and I now accept this responsibility with all the determination and the motivation and the diligence that I've had in all the other challenges I've faced. I also think it's important that I point out that I didn't get here alone. There are so many women throughout this century that have gone before me and have taken to the skies. From the first barnstormers through the women military Air Force service pilots from World War II, the Mercury women from back in the early 1960s that went through all the tough medical testing to become the first astronauts, to the first women who entered the Air Force and Navy military pilot training in the mid 1970s, and most important, the first women astronauts and I'd like to point out Sally Ride, who is with us here today all these women have been my role models and my inspiration and I couldn't be here today without them. And I'd like to say a special thank you to them. (Applause.)
