Answer:

15 years ago, the world watched in horror as the US space shuttle Columbia disintegrated while reentering the earth’s atmosphere. All seven crew members on board were lost; one of them was Indian-American Kalpana Chawla, the first woman of Indian origin to go to space. Although Kalpana’s second space flight ended in disaster, she is remembered as an extraordinary woman, an inspiration, and a role model. She set a mighty example for being courageous, dedicated, and an independent woman who set her eyes on space and followed through with her dream.

Born in Karnal district in Haryana, Kalpana was interested in aeronautical engineering from an early age and did all she could to pursue her dreams, no mean feat in a society where engineers are overwhelming male. Moving to the US helped her earn a Master’s and a Doctorate in her chosen field. Kalpana worked at NASA for seven years before becoming an astronaut in March 1995. She took off on her maiden flight in November 1997.

As the first Indian woman and only the second Indian in history to fly in space, Kalpana broke all kinds of barriers and inspired a whole new generation of young girls and women to look to the stars. On her 15th death anniversary, we remember the lessons taught by a woman who believed no challenge was too big, and who refused to let fear of the unknown stop her from succeeding.
