I am an interpreter of music rather than a composer of it.

As I'm sure you may know, I'm planning to become a spaceflight participant and have been recently approved to begin my spaceflight training by the Russian space federation having passed the necessary medical and physical tests.

It's in everyone's best interest to help close the gender gap in the sciences.

I don't want to see pictures of Hollywood stars in their dressing gowns taking out the rubbish. It ruins the fantasy.

I've wanted to go to space, really, since I was a little girl.

I feel very lucky for that gift that I was given but it´s been quite tough to deal with sometimes too. When you are blessed with something like this and it brings emotions to people - to keep up to the magical standard that everybody wants it to be and the perfection - can be hard.
