WHY I CHOSE THIS TOPIC
- Only 3 women have gone to space
- Even monkey went before a human

WHAT LENS
- Historical
- Because only 3 women have made it into space
- Also because if they are able to make a more protective space suit for females more women will be able to go and women going into space will be as exciting as when a man goes.

- Christina Koch volunteered for this long duration mission
- NASA flight surgeons and scientists will pore over the changes to her body in the same way they studied Mr.Kelly and Ms. Whiston
- Another record holder is Scott Kelly with 520 or 346 days in space (different places say different things)
