- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 12 Jan, 2026 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Door time: 7:00
Show time: 7:30

Since 1978 when six American women were selected as astronaut candidates, women have become fully integral to the astronaut corps and have held every technical and leadership position. Yet the public is not aware of most of them and their achievements in the US space program. This presentation will introduce the women who have collectively flown more than 100 space shuttle missions, 10 SpaceX flights, and more than 30 space station expeditions, with special attention to those with Colorado ties. Audiences may find inspiration in their different journeys to become astronauts, the challenges they faced, and their resilience and dedication as they took their place in space.
