Two female astronauts are doing a spacewalk together right now

NASA's website said,"astronauts typically describe them as the most physically challenging thing they do".Back in March this year, NASABoth Ms Koch and Ms Meir were selected as astronaut candidates in 2013 on their first spaceflight.NASA leaders and others around the world have cheered Ms Koch and Ms Meir on.

At the same time, many noted that this will hopefully become routine in the future. America's first female spacewalker from 35 years ago, Kathy Sullivan, was delighted. She said It's good to finally have enough women in the astronaut corps and trained for spacewalking for this to happen. "We've got qualified women running the control, running space centres, commanding the station, commanding spaceships and doing spacewalks," Ms Sullivan said earlier this week.

Tracy Caldwell Dyson, a three-time spacewalker who watched from Mission Control, added:"Hopefully, this will now be considered normal."

Boring. I want 2 transgenders next time.

Spacewalks are pretty normal occurrence these days why should we care?

Don't you love how no one suffers muscle atrophy in space with zero gravity. Utter BS staged

Female astronauts have died to. Do you remember? Report that.

The first space walk was in 1965. So im not sure why this is newsworthy.
