Wir wollen von Kindern wissen, welche Fragen sie beschäftigen. Jede Woche beantworten wir eine. Diese Frage kommt von Fridolin, 5 Jahre alt.#Kinderfrage #Astronauten #ISS #Toilette #Alltag #Gesellschaft
Kinder fragen, die taz antwortet: Wie machen Astronauten Kacka?
Moghbeli, a lieutenant colonel in the US Marine Corps, is commander of the Crew-7 mission on her first flight to space. The 40-year-old astronaut was a Marine Corps helicopter test pilot before her selection as a NASA astronaut in 2017. She is the daughter of Iranian parents who fled their home country after the 1979 Iranian Revolution.
She said she hopes her mission will inspire children still in Iran, and is bringing Persian food to share with her crewmates in orbit.
That must be great for those onboard! Some really tasty Persian food

When Barbie first became an astronaut in 1965, she was more than a decade ahead of NASA sending a woman to space. Since then, there have been several versions of astronaut Barbie — from a spangly 80s doll to one who had a jumpsuit just like the one they give you at Space Camp. Today, astronaut Barbie actually went to the International Space Station! And she's joined by a collection of dolls that represent actual people who really contributed to space science like Sally Ride and Katherine Johnson. We're talking about all those versions of Barbie today on AirSpace. (Follow along with pictures of all of these dolls on our Instagram.)
