The National Space Biomedical Research Institute (NSBRI) offers its condolences to the family, friends and coworkers of Dr. Sally Ride. <\/p>\n

“NSBRI is saddened by today’s passing of Dr. Sally Ride. America has lost a pioneer in human spaceflight and a role model to all,” said NSBRI President and CEO Dr. Jeffrey P. Sutton. <\/p>\n

Dr. Ride provided inspiration to women and girls with her historic flight into space aboard Space Shuttle Challenger in 1983. After a second spaceflight and retiring from NASA, she continued as an educator and through her company to be a leader in inspiring young people to be the best they can be in their future careers. <\/p>\n

NSBRI was a supporter of the Sally Ride Science Festivals held at Rice University. Her legacy of determination and achievement will be long-remembered both inside and outside the world’s human spaceflight communities.<\/p>\n
