Mae Jemison

The Story of Jemison

By Camille

Mae C. Jemison is an icon. Did you know she is fluent in four different languages? She can speak Russian, Swahili, Japanese, and of course, English. The funny thing is, she is not even a linguist, she's an astronaut! In fact, she was the very first African-American women to go into space! Mae Jemison is amazing!

It all began is Decatur, Alabama. Mae was born on October 17th, 1956, to Charley and Dorothy Jemison. She had two siblings named Ada and Charles Jemison. When she was young, she said she was going to go to space one day. But before she could do that, she had to go to school.

Jemison went to Morgan Park High School in Chicago, Illinois. Then she went to Stanford University. Her Parents supported her talents a lot. After that, she went to University Medical College. When she went to space, she studied weightlessness and motion sickness on her and the crew. There are many other details about space, though.

First of all, On June 4, 1987, Jemison was admitted into the training program. She flew on September 12, 1992. She went on Endeavor with six other astronauts. She was in space for 190 hours, (8 days). They returned September 20, 1992. Jemison Obtained her M. D. in 1981. When Jemison was a medical doctor, she worked on the Peace Corps for 2 ½ years. She left NASA in March 1993. After NASA, Jemison taught at Dartmouth. She also made the Jemison Group, to seek research.

Mae C. Jemison inspired me by making me feel like I can achieve anything. She said she was going to space one day, and that is exactly what she did. I feel she inspired people to believe in themselves. Mae C. Jemson is an amazing person.

"Hello! I just came from an interview with NASA. They wanted to how my experiments went in space. They also wanted to know if I would ever join again. I don't think I will, I'm getting a little old. After this I'm going to shoot an episode of Star Trek. I will be a special guest. So do you have any questions?"

Dava Newman

Hello, I'm Dava Newman, I am so glad you all came. If you didn’t know who I am, my name is Dava Newman. You may know me for my spacesuit. I was the main engineer and I tried to base the suit off animal traits and materials such as a shrimp or an armadillo because of their hard shells, so if something happens they would be protected.

The material is based on a spider's web which is strong, but it is the type to the skin but is breathable and flexible so we so the astronaut can move. We tested to see it by doing yoga it was successful it is perfect for space and some more about me I am 54 years old.

I have traveled the world with my husband Guillermo Trotti. It was amazing! We were on a boat on our way back when we ran out of oil, but we got oil in Italy. We were so excited, but we had to use it to make it to the nearest island. We made it there and got more oil in the ship for the boat and made it home.

Now about my family I have a brother father and I have a husband too. They are the loves of my life. They make me so happy. I am so happy to have them in my life.

She inspires me because she is one of the fist spacesuit engineers and because she proves that she can do as much as a man can and maybe even more. If you want to learn more about her you can read her book Aero Space That is all about me thanks thank you for coming have a great day
