Nicole Mann, the first Native American woman to leave Earth as commander of SpaceX Crew-5, emphasizes the importance of sharing the unique journeys of astronauts and the overall diversity of crews. Mann believes that children can be motivated to reach for their dreams by seeing themselves represented in space exploration. The recent Crew-5 mission concluded the longest-ever streak of consecutive women missions in space, highlighting the progress made in diversity. Mann and her crewmates from Russia and Japan emphasize the importance of partnerships between men and women in space exploration to prepare for tougher missions to the moon or other planets in the coming decades.
