Could "A person related to Sally Ride" provide the proper dates and some authentication? It would be immensely useful in updating the article.

"Sorry, Sorry!!!!" a person named Lovely said SO....
The meaning of the last sentence is ambiguous. I'm also not sure if it should be at the end of the article. 137.22.6.186 03:07, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
This section needs to be cleaned up at the end of the article: "Ride is the only person to serve on both of the panels investigating Shuttle accidents (those for the Challenger explosion and the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster). Also she became very important to society. Se helped, and inspired many people, and she still does. Today she is mariied and with two kids." —This unsigned comment was added by 71.5.126.130 (talk • contribs) 19:42, 23 March 2006.

[edit] Youngest in Orbit?
It is claimed that Sally Ride was the youngest person sent into orbit at 31. However Gherman Titov was just 25 when he flew on Vostok 2 way back in 1961. It is possible she is either the youngest American or youngest woman in orbit (or both), but I am not sure. Anyway for now I will remove that line, someone can restore it if they can find a reliable source to the contray. Teiresias84 00:43, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] NASA bio
Do we really need her NASA bio reproduced verbatim on this page, especially considering their is an external link to it? If no one objects, I'll remove it in a day or two. Teiresias84 04:48, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
- Well I just did it, however I accidently hit enter in the middle of my edit summary - its supposed to read something like 'rvt newbie tests and removed nasa biog'. Teiresias84 12:36, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
