Italy s first woman in space makes history again.
Italian astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti will become the first European woman to command the International Space Station (ISS) in 2022.
Cristoforetti, popularly known in Italy as AstroSam, will take charge during Expedition 68 which will see the ISS in orbit in 2022, the European Space Agency (ESA) announced.
As a member of Crew-4, the Milan-born astronaut will be launched with NASA astronauts Kjell Lindgren and Bob Hines to the ISS from Florida on a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft next year.
“Returning to the International Space Station to represent Europe is an honour in itself” - says Cristoforetti - “I am humbled by my appointment to the position of commander and look forward to drawing on the experience I’ve gained in space and on Earth to lead a very capable team in orbit.”
