Descriere magazin:
Funk, Wally: - Wally Funk has been actively pursuing her dream of spaceflight since 1960. Not only did she pass the same physical exams as NASA\'s first astronauts (all male), but she arranged additional tests that NASA declined to authorize. When her attempts to join the astronaut corps were thwarted, she continued to seek spaceflight opportunities aboard the Space Cruiser System in 1999, as a pilot for Interorbital Systems\' potential entry in the 2004 Ansari X-Prize competition, and now as a ticket holder on Virgin Galactic. She has participated in space camps at the US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama (1991) and at the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center in Star City, Russia (2000). Wally is an active member in many aviation and women\'s organizations, including Women in Aviation International, the Ninety-Nines, the International Women\'s Air & Space Museum, Zonta International, and the Association for Women in Aviation Maintenance. She is also active in organizations associated with her hobbies, including the Single Action Shooting Society and the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. Wally\'s desire for spaceflight has been a quest but not an obsession. She did not let it keep her from an outstanding and satisfying career in aviation. She has been awarded the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States\' Aeronautics and Aerospace Award Gold Medal, the Daughters of the American Revolution\'s award for Excellence in Community Service, and awards from Pratt & Whitney and Delta Airlines, among others. She has a plaque on the National Air and Space Museum\'s Wall of Honor. She is a tireless educator and advocate for girls\' involvement in STEM activities and careers.
