Yes, true she became the first female pilot in two earlier missions before this one. But she also became the first female commander (a higher rank) in this mission pictured. She is pictured here at the commander's station on day 1 of her historic mission. She also commanded a later mission a few years after this. Coffeeandcrumbs (talk) 00:21, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
