It almost looks like a high school yearbook photo, Anna Lee Fisher looks so young. Instead it’s her astronaut photo taken by NASA in 1979 when she completed her 1st year of training. Dr. Fisher flew aboard Space Shuttle Discovery in Nov 1984 to become the 1st mother in space. It was also the 1st Shuttle mission which deployed & retrieved 2 communication satellites. Space heroine!

A small thing I had with an astronaut and a cosmonaut in space. They have alien friends and they live on the moon. Apollo is American and Vlad is Russian and end up becoming more than friends.
