    RIP Sally Ride.

    Sally Ride, the first American women in space passed away at the age of 61 after a long bout with pancreatic cancer.

    Godspeed.

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    Ride amongst the stars in heaven, your struggle is now over. You inspired entire generations of girls to study their math and science harder to want to grow up and be just like you. Your legacy will live on.

    I was in grad school when she flew the first time. There's a song called "Ride, Sally, Ride" that they played on the radio at the launch! RIP, Astronaut Sally.

    Rest in peace, Sally Ride, an inspiration for us all.

    Death thought about it.
