Podcast appearances and mentions of Wally Funk

Glynnis MacNicol, author of "I'm Mostly Here to Enjoy Myself," joins the show to discuss how single women can (and do) embrace joy and self-discovery — and how to redefine success and pleasure in middle age. Plus, Simone and Danielle get into societal pressures, gender biases in success timelines, and examples of late bloomers who defied societal expectations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ed Dwight, Wally Funk, kvinner generelt og andre som ikke er/var protestantiske hvite menn med crew-cut. I denne episoden tar vi for oss alle dem som ble forbigått og utelatt fra romeventyret på grunn av kjønn, rase og legning. Aktualisert av at Ed Dwight nylig ble verdens eldste i verdensrommet, 60 år etter at han forsøkte å bli astronaut.

Leah's super excited to tell you about one of her favorite Mercury 13 gals who also is the oldest woman to go to space! It's the delightful, Wally Funk!

Estas fueron las palabras de Wally Funk al enterarse de que Jeff Bezos la había escogido para viajar al espacio. Wally llevaba más de seis décadas intentando hacer realidad un sueño que comenzó en su juventud. A los veintiún años se unió al programa Mujeres en el Espacio, pero la NASA canceló el proyecto. Sin embargo, con más de ochenta años de edad, su sueño de superar la línea de Kármán (el límite entre la atmósfera y el espacio exterior) siguió siendo atesorado en su alma. Finalmente, el día esperado llegó: el 20 de julio de 2021, la señora Wally subió a la nave New Shepard, y desde allí, a unos 106 kilómetros [55 millas] sobre el nivel del mar, pudo ver espectaculares imágenes de nuestro planeta. Creo que Wally Funk tiene razón al sentirse privilegiada de que uno de los hombres más ricos del mundo la haya elegido para visitar el espacio durante once minutos. Tengo que admitir que me emocionó ver su alegría en el video que Bezos subió a Instagram.Ahora bien, ¿no debería ser para nosotros un grandísimo motivo de gozo que Dios, el ser más poderoso del universo, nos haya escogido para que viajemos hasta las entrañas del mismo cielo? Dice Pablo "desde el principio Dios [nos] escogió para ser salvos" (2 Tesalonicenses 2:13, NVI). Disfrutaremos para siempre esa salvación cuando hagamos un viaje sin escala "a la ciudad del Dios vivo, Jerusalén, la celestial" (Hebreos 12:22). Dios nos ha dado esta maravillosa promesa: "Se oirá una voz de mando, la voz de un arcángel y el sonido de la trompeta de Dios, y el Señor mismo bajará del cielo. Y los que murieron creyendo en Cristo, resucitarán primero; después, los que hayamos quedado vivos seremos llevados, juntamente con ellos, en las nubes, para encontrarnos con el Señor en el aire; y así estaremos con el Señor para siempre" (1 Tesalonicenses 4:16, 17).Seremos llevados al cielo, nadie tiene que quedarse aquí, hay espacio para todos en la nave espacial del Señor.

In this episode of the Celestial Citizen podcast, host Britt Duffy Adkins introduces a special project that the Celestial Citizen team has been working on to draw attention to gender discrimination and sexual harassment in the space industry.  The project, titled "Take Up Space," includes a short film and a four-part companion podcast series that features the firsthand accounts of anonymous women and non-binary individuals working in the space industry.In this first episode, titled "Not Technical Enough" we share stories that focus on the many ways in which women are discouraged from working in STEM and technical fields in both subtle and overt ways.The current climate for women in STEM and women in space is described as "very cloudy" by one of the participants.  And although progress has been made, there is still a long way to go to make the space industry more inclusive.  Women are often made to feel uncomfortable if they have opinions or ideas, and the industry is still by and large dominated by men.  Globally, women make up only 11% of astronauts, 20-22% of space industry workers, and 30% of researchers, scientists, and engineers.Despite the challenges, there are efforts to address these issues and bring about change.  But perhaps change is not coming fast enough, and there is a risk of losing talented individuals who want to work in the industry if things don't improve.  One speaker points out that recent triumphs, such as Wally Funk's trip to space, are few and far between.  Many women have had to abandon their dreams due to lack of opportunities, discrimination, mistreatment, and other societal pressures.The speakers share their personal experiences with doubt, questioning their place in the industry, and feeling invisible or not taken seriously.  One woman, in particular, recounts her experience with harassment in her first job in the field, which was extremely demoralizing and made her question whether it was worth staying in the industry.Despite the challenges, the speakers remain determined to pursue their passions and make a difference.  The podcast provides a powerful look at the experiences of gender minorities in the space industry and highlights the need for greater inclusivity and diversity in the field.Our short film, "Take Up Space," can be found on the Celestial Citizen YouTube channel.Support the showSubscribe to our newsletter and follow us on social media!Instagram: @thecelestialcitizenTwitter: @celestialcitznLinkedIn: Celestial CitizenYouTube: @thecelestialcitizen

This week on The Cosmic Companion, we are Celebrating Diversity in Space Exploration, looking at the history of inclusion in human explorations beyond our world — past, present, and future. Later in the show, we'll be talking with Meredith Bagby, author of The New Guys, a look at NASA's groundbreaking astronaut class of 1978.The history of space exploration has been marked by numerous milestones, not only in terms of scientific and technological achievements but also in the inclusion and diversity of those who explore beyond our home world. Over the decades, space exploration has slowly evolved to include women, people of color, and LGBTQ+ individuals, paving the way for greater representation in the future.NASA's original class of astronauts from 1959, the Mercury Seven, were all Caucasian male jet pilots — not exactly representative of a melting pot of society. However, less well-known were the Mercury 13, a group of 13 women who underwent astronaut training in the early 1960s. Despite performing as well, if not better, than men at many rigorous physiological tests, NASA did not recognize these women as official astronaut trainees. Opposed by many politicians and media alike, no member of the Mercury 13 flew to space for 60 years until Wally Funk in 2021...

2023 is a big year for women in space flight with historic anniversaries and landmark announcements coming up, so we want to start to highlight some female Space Flight Pioneers and today we talk about Wally Funk. To do this we're joined by journalist and broadcaster Sue Nelson who wrote the wonderful book: “Wally Funk's Race For Space”Sue Nelson:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sue-nelson-boffin-media-27969329/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ScienceNelsonSpace Boffins Podcast:https://www.thenakedscientists.com/podcasts/astronomy-podcasts/space-boffins Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/spaceboffins Twitter: https://twitter.com/SpaceBoffins Full show notes: https://spaceandthingspodcast.com/Show notes include links to all articles mentioned and full details of our guests and links to what caught our eye this week.Image Credits: Sue NelsonSpace and Things:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/spaceandthings1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spaceandthingspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/spaceandthingspodcast/Merch and Info: https://www.spaceandthingspodcast.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/SpaceandthingsBusiness Enquiries: info@andthingsproductions.comSpace and Things is brought to you And Things Productions https://www.andthingsproductions.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/spaceandthings.

After the Mercury 7 were selected, an unofficial project sought to test 13 women pilots to see if they pass  the same tests. The Mercury 13 - or FLATs (Fist Lady Astronauts Trainees) - all passed the Phase I tests but the project was cancelled before most of them could go any further. Because they had no test pilot experence (a career field only open to men in the 1950s and 1960s), none of them were astually considered to become astronauts despite impressive resumes and good test results.As NASA prepared to move from Project Mercury to Project Gemini, the Soviet Space Program look for ways to stay ahead in the space race (at least in terms of propaganda). They took a huge gamble, but successfully flew the frist multi-crew mission (in stylish track suits and not pressurized space suits) and they also managed the first space walk, though the most dangerous part of that mission may have been after they landed back on Earth.The Space Race series introduction is Lift Off by kennysvoice.As always, a very special thanks to Mountain Up Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!For more information about the podcast visit: ·       The GoA website: https://www.ghostsofarlingtonpodcast.com    ·       Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghostsofarlingtonpodcast·       Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArlingtonGhosts·       Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsofarlington/

Désert du Texas. 20 juillet 2021. 8h00.La météo est idéale en cette matinée. Le ciel est totalement dégagé et les vents sont légers. Cela fait tout juste deux semaines que Jeff Bezos a quitté la présidence de sa société Amazon. Pour son premier voyage en tant que jeune retraité, il a vu grand, très grand. Aux aurores, ce n'est pas une tenue de vacances qu'il a enfilée mais une combinaison bleue au couleur de sa Start up « Blue Origin ». 8h05. Toute l'équipe du site appelé « One » est en alerte.52 ans jour pour jour après les premiers pas de Neil Armstrong sur la lune, quatre touristes de l'espace s'apprêtent à décoller, pour un voyage au-delà de l'atmosphère terrestre. À bord de la fusée, aux côtés de Jeff Bezos, il y a son frère Mark, une aviatrice et astronaute de 82 ans Wally Funk, et un Néerlandais de 18 ans Oliver Daemen. Avec ce vol, Wally Funk et Olivier Daemen vont devenir respectivement l'astronaute la plus âgée et le plus jeune de l'Histoire de la conquête de l'espace.8h09. La fusée nommée « New Shepard » est prête pour le décollage. Une certaine agitation, et une fébrilité sont palpables au sein de l'équipage. Le paysage, lui, est paradoxalement calme, comme figé, en attente. Au beau milieu de l'immensité du désert, droite et impatiente, pointant vers le ciel, on ne voit qu'elle à des kilomètres à la ronde : Une fusée blanche, avec sur son côté, écrit en bleu, le nom de la société qui l'a créé « Blue Origin ».8h11. Avec quelques minutes de retard sur l'horaire prévu, l'engin de 49 tonnes quitte le sol dans un tremblement assourdissant. La fusée fend le ciel, elle accéléré de plus en plus, pour atteindre une vitesse qui dépasse les 3700 kilomètres heure. Au bout de 150 secondes, la capsule se sépare de son propulseur. Quelques instants plus tard, le pari est réussi. Les voyageurs se retrouvent en suspension à un peu plus de 100 km au-dessus de la terre, entre l'atmosphère terrestre et l'espace. Pour ces quatre touristes d'un nouveau genre, le temps d'une éternité éphémère, la vie se fige, pour ne devenir rapidement qu'un souvenir. Car, ça y est, la capsule redescend, en chute libre. C'est déjà le moment du retour, après 11 minutes de vol. Trois immenses parachutes se déploient, puis c'est le rétro-propulseur qui apparaît pour assurer un atterrissage en douceur. De retour sur terre, Jeff Bezos, un chapeau de cowboy sur la tête déclare : « Je viens de vivre le plus beau jour de ma vie ».Comment cet homme de 57 ans a-t-il pu s'offrir ce rêve d'enfant à plusieurs milliards de dollars ? Grâce à la fortune qu'il a accumulée. Une richesse qu'il doit à une idée qu'il a eu il y a une vingtaine d'années : Créer « La plus grande librairie du monde » sur internet.Texte : Bertrand BichaudVoix : Marie ZidiEncore plus de Podcast à écouter ici sur PODCAST STORY

Wally Funk tried for decades to become an astronaut, at a time before NASA allowed women into orbit. This year she finally flew to space at age 82. The Atlantic shares her remarkable story. Two women broke barriers in football in 2021. Sports Illustrated has what you should know about Sarah Thomas, the first woman to officiate a Super Bowl. And NPR introduces Maia Chaka, the first Black woman to officiate an NFL game. It started with a few kids biking to school together for safety. It turned into a mass movement that touched hearts around the world, NPR reports. Two fierce rivals were neck-and-neck for Olympic gold. Sports Illustrated shows what happened next: Instead of going on to a tie-breaking round, they made the surprising decision to share victory. Zaila Avant-garde captured the nation’s attention as the first African American winner of the Scripps National Spelling Bee. But Variety found there was much more to her. In a year with its share of dark times, goofy moments on social media helped give us all a lift. Wall Street Journal columnist Jason Gay lists some favorites. Apple News Spotlight editors put together a special collection of the best good-news stories of the year.

Today Kevin and I meet with Loretta Hall, a freelance writer and nonfiction book author. She has been interested in space travel since her teenage years, when she followed closely the early NASA programs: selection of the Mercury Seven astronauts, the suborbital and orbital missions of Mercury and Gemini, and the Apollo steps toward a moon landing. About fifteen years ago, her latent fascination with space exploration resurfaced, and she has since concentrated on that subject. She has written nine nonfiction books, including five on the history and future of space travel. Loretta loves finding ways to participate in space activities without being an astronaut. That led her to write one of her books, The Complete Space Buff's Bucket List: 100 Space Things to Do Before You Die. Her newest book, Higher, Faster, Longer: My Life in Aviation and My Quest for Spaceflight, was a cooperative effort to produce the memoir of Wally Funk, an icon in the fields of aviation and spaceflight. Loretta is a Certified Space Ambassador for the National Space Society, an officer of New Mexico Press Women, and a member of the Historical Society of New Mexico's Speakers Bureau.

Three months ago, aviator Wally Funk made headlines when she became the oldest person to fly into space. At 82 years old, she broke the record long held by John Glenn, who was 77 when he made his last suborbital flight in 1998. After landing, Funk astounded the world with her stunning smile and boundless energy, causing White House spokesperson Jen Psaki to remark: “She is America's new sweetheart.” Wally Funk was born in 1939 as Mary Wallace Funk, and had her first contact with an aircraft when she was just a year old. By the time she reached high school, Funk was already on her way to becoming one of the first female pilots in the U.S., in an era when women were expected to stay home and care for their families. But gender discrimination never stopped Funk. She became a professional aviator at the age of 20 and a year later volunteered for NASA's “Women in Space” program. Though she went through rigorous training along with 12 other highly qualified female aviators, the program was canceled. It wasn't until the late 1970s that NASA began accepting and training women to be astronauts. As soon as that door opened, Funk applied three times but was turned down because she didn't have an engineering degree. She took it all in stride, and kept her longing to fly into space. In 2020, the memoir of her career, called Higher, Faster, Longer — My Life in Aviation and My Quest for Spaceflight, was published. It caught the attention of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who invited her to join him as one of a four-member crew aboard his spacecraft, New Shepard, on a suborbital flight on July 20 this year. After the flight, Wally told reporters, “I've been waiting a long time. I want to go again — fast.” Hope you're listening, Mr. Bezos. This article was provided by The Japan Times Alpha.

Ninety-year-old actor William Shatner, flew into space Wednesday. The performer is known for playing Captain Kirk in the Star Trek television series and films. He is the oldest person to ever reach space.90 岁的演员威廉·夏特纳 (William Shatner) 于周三飞入太空。这位表演者以在《星际迷航》电视剧和电影中饰演柯克船长而闻名。他是有史以来到达太空的最年长的人。Shatner was a passenger on a spaceship built by Blue Origin, the company owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.夏特纳是亚马逊创始人杰夫贝索斯拥有的蓝色起源公司建造的宇宙飞船的乘客。The Star Trek actor and three other passengers flew about 106 kilometers over the desert of western Texas to the edge of space. The ship operates without a pilot. It spent about three minutes at zero gravity then safely returned to Earth by parachute. The flight lasted just over 10 minutes.星际迷航演员和其他三名乘客在德克萨斯州西部的沙漠上空飞行了大约 106 公里，到达太空边缘。这艘船在没有飞行员的情况下运行。它在零重力下度过了大约三分钟，然后通过降落伞安全返回地球。飞行持续了10多分钟。“How about that, guys? That was unlike anything they described,” the actor said as the ship came back to Earth.“那个怎么样，伙计们？这与他们所描述的完全不同，”这位演员在飞船返回地球时说道。Shatner broke the record for the oldest person in space by eight years. Pilot Wally Funk set the earlier record in July, also on a Blue Origin rocket.夏特纳打破了太空中最年长人的记录八岁。飞行员沃利·芬克 (Wally Funk) 在 7 月创造了较早的记录，同样是在蓝色起源火箭上。Science fiction fans enjoyed the chance to see the man best known as Captain James T. Kirk of the starship Enterprise.夏特纳打破了太空中最年长人的记录八岁。飞行员沃利·芬克 (Wally Funk) 在 7 月创造了较早的记录，同样是在蓝色起源火箭上。“This is a pinch-me moment for all of us to see Captain James Tiberius Kirk go to space,” said Blue Origin launch commentator Jacki Cortese before liftoff. She said she, like many others, became interested in the space business because of shows like Star Trek.“对于我们所有人来说，看到詹姆斯·提比略·柯克船长进入太空，这是一个让我紧张的时刻，”蓝色起源发射评论员杰基·科蒂斯在升空前说。她说，像许多其他人一样，因为《星际迷航》这样的节目，她对太空业务产生了兴趣。Bezos is also a Star Trek fan. He once played an outer space creature in one of the later Star Trek movies. Shatner flew on the ship for free as his invited guest.贝索斯也是《星际迷航》的粉丝。他曾在后来的一部星际迷航电影中扮演外太空生物。夏特纳作为他的受邀客人免费登上了这艘船。The launch brings attention to Bezos' space travel company.此次发射引起了贝佐斯太空旅行公司的关注。Bezos himself drove the four passengers to the launch area. He closed the ship's door after they climbed into the 18-meter rocket. And he was there to welcome the crew after the ship returned.贝佐斯亲自驾驶四名乘客前往发射区。在他们爬上 18 米火箭后，他关上了船的门。船返回后，他在那里欢迎船员。“Hello, astronauts. Welcome to Earth!” Bezos said as he opened the door and was hugged by Shatner.“你好，宇航员。欢迎来到地球！”贝佐斯一边说，一边打开门，被夏特纳抱住。The space tourism industry is quickly growing. Many passengers without government spaceflight training have been able to fly into space recently.太空旅游业正在迅速发展。许多没有接受过政府航天训练的乘客最近已经能够飞入太空。Virgin Galactic's Richard Branson went into space in his own rocket in July, followed by Bezos nine days later on Blue Origin's first flight with a crew. Elon Musk's company SpaceX made its first private flight last month, but without Musk as a passenger. Last week, Russia launched an actor and a film director to the International Space Station to film a movie.维珍银河的理查德布兰森在 7 月乘坐他自己的火箭进入太空，九天后贝佐斯与机组人员一起进行了蓝色起源的首次飞行。埃隆马斯克的公司SpaceX上个月进行了首次私人飞行，但没有马斯克作为乘客。上周，俄罗斯派遣一名演员和一名电影导演前往国际空间站拍摄电影。Also on the flight was Audrey Powers, Blue Origin vice president. There were two other passengers who paid: Chris Boshuizen, a former NASA engineer, and software businessman Glen de Vries. Blue Origin would not release the cost of their flights.飞行中还有蓝色起源副总裁奥黛丽·鲍尔斯。还有另外两名乘客支付了费用：前 NASA 工程师 Chris Boshuizen 和软件商人 Glen de Vries。Blue Origin 不会公布他们的航班费用。After the flight, Shatner told Bezos that he gave him “the most profound experience I can imagine.”飞行结束后，沙特纳告诉贝索斯，他给了他“我能想象到的最深刻的体验”。Through tears, the actor said, “I'm so filled with emotion about what just happened. It's extraordinary. I hope I never recover from this. I hope that I can maintain what I feel now. I don't want to lose it.”这位演员流着泪说：“我对刚刚发生的事情充满了情感。这是非凡的。我希望我永远不会从这件事中恢复过来。我希望我能保持现在的感觉。我不想失去它。”

Wally Funk (1939) é uma aviadora norte-americana que, recentemente, tornou-se a pessoa mais velha a ir para o espaço.

Science Journalist Sue Nelson, author of, “Wally Funk's Race for Space: The Extraordinary Story of a Female Aviation Pioneer,” walks us through the history of thirteen American women who successfully underwent the same training as the astronauts selected by NASA for Project Mercury but weren't given the opportunity to travel to space, and how Wally Funk's dream finally became reality when she was able to board Jeff Bezo's Blue Origin and become the oldest person to ever go into space.Follow Sue Nelson: https://twitter.com/ScienceNelsonFollow Wally Funk: https://twitter.com/wallyfunksspaceFollow Us:Instagram: www.instagram.com/candicekayla/ Twitter: www.twitter.com/CandiceKayla Website: www.candicekayla.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Cosa succede quando dal cassetto dei sogni se ne estrae uno dopo ben 60 anni e lo si realizza? Lo ha fatto Wally Funk, la pilota a cui la Nasa disse no. Tutto nella nuova puntata di Technomondo, la rubrica dedicata alla tecnologia di Raffaella Quadri.

Jeff Bezos, the world's richest man, went to space and back Tuesday morning on an 11-minute, supersonic joy ride aboard the rocket and capsule system developed by his space company, Blue Origin. Riding alongside the multibillionaire were Bezos' brother, Mark Bezos; Wally Funk, an 82-year-old pilot and one of the "Mercury 13" women who trained to go to space in the 20th century but never got to fly; and an 18-year old recent high school graduate named Oliver Daemen who was Blue Origin's first paying customer and whose father, an investor, purchased his ticket. Funk and Daemen became the oldest and youngest people, respectively, ever to travel to space. And this flight marked the first-ever crewed mission for Blue Origin's New Shepard suborbital space tourism rocket, which the company plans to use to take wealthy thrill seekers on high-flying joy rides in the months and years to come.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

在台灣藝術領域，久方武是第一位完整撰寫藝術論述關於太空宇宙大爆炸與時間關係式的影像思想藝術家，因而創作出『時間方程式』一書。 剛剛在2021年七月退休的亞馬遜前執行長貝佐斯，在20號挑戰人類首次民間商用太空火箭飛行！ Blue Origin 原本除了 Jeff Bezos與其弟弟和 Wally Funk 外，還有一個位置是以 2,800 萬美元的天價拍得。但這位仁兄因為日程安排無法首飛上成行。因此和 Bezos「同艙而座」的機會，便給了年僅 18 歲 Oliver Daemon。Oliver 將成為目前最「年輕」的太空人，而同時已 82 歲的 Wally Funk 也將成為目前最年長的太空人了。 貝佐斯在本次行動中，給了我們何種商業行銷啟示？

Sir Richard Branson zažil ako prvý turista v histórii let do vesmíru. Vo výške 88 kilometrov od Zeme zažila šesťčlenná posádka beztiažový stav a potom sa bezpečne vrátila späť na zem. Branson predbehol najbohatšieho muža na svete Jeffa Bezosa, ktorý poletí do vesmíru o niekoľko dní. Je vesmírna turistika len pre bohatých ľudí, čo sa nudia, alebo budeme o pár rokov letieť do vesmíru aj my, bežní smrteľníci? A ako sa dá na takýto let pripraviť? Zuzana Kovačič Hanzelová sa na túto tému pýta astrobiologičky Michaely Musilovej.

This week we were joined by retired astronaut Clayton C. Anderson to discuss his new podcast 'Making Of An Ordinary Spaceman. In a wonderful honest and inspirational interview, we talked about his journey learned a bit about him as well as talking about 'cashtronauts'.As well as interviewing Clayton, Emily and Dave also carry on that discussion about billionaires in space and the remarkable story of Wally Funk.A lot to fit in this week, but we hope you enjoy it!Clayton Anderson:https://astroclay.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/Astro_clayInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/astro_clay/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AstroClayThe Making Of An Ordinary Astronaut Podcast:https://hurrdatmedia.com/network/show/the-making-of-an-ordinary-spaceman/Check out his books:The Ordinary Spaceman - From Boyhood Dreams to AstronautIt's A Question of SpaceChildrens books:Letters from SpaceA is for AstronautFull show notes and associated videos: https://spaceandthingspodcast.com/podcast/bnmcddpabge6669-2tylp-j3gk9-fk47l-dz7ae-jc6ft-7rn3l-8ew42-jf2mtImage Credits: NASASpace and Things:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/spaceandthings1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spaceandthingspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/spaceandthingspodcast/Merch and Info: https://www.spaceandthingspodcast.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/SpaceandthingsBusiness Enquiries: info@andthingsproductions.comSpace and Things is brought to you And Things Productions https://www.andthingsproductions.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/spaceandthings.

Dve mladé ženy šli centrom Bratislavy z kultúrnej akcie. Stretli skupinku mladých mužov, ktorí ich začali slovne aj fyzicky napádať. Jeden z nich dokonca strčil žene ruku medzi nohy. Obe ženy nakoniec absolútne vydesené skupine mužov unikli, a rozhodli sa to ohlásiť na polícii. Čo nasledovalo potom, prekvapí asi málokoho – policajti sa ich pýtali čo mali oblečné, sexuálny útok zľahčovali a pýtali sa, či si to ženy nemohli pomýliť s komplimentami. Drvivá väčšina útokov na ženy sa na políciu ani nedostane, aj pre skúsenosti žien s nahlasovaním. Zuzana Kovačič Hanzelová sa na túto tému pýta advokáta Matúša Kanisa. Zdroj zvukov: IG/radamiksik, TV Markíza, FB/Polícia Slovenskej republiky Odporúčanie Môj zaujímavý tip na záver je príbeh Wally Funk, ktorá ako 82 ročná poletí do vesmíru s Jeffom Bezosom. Príbeh astronautky, ktorá aj pre sexizmus letí do vesmíru až po 60tich rokoch tréningu je fascinujúci a je to môj zaujímavý tip na záver. – Ak máte pre nás spätnú väzbu, odkaz alebo nápad, napíšte nám na dobrerano@sme.sk – Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na sme.sk/podcasty – Podporte vznik podcastu Dobré ráno a kúpte si digitálne predplatné SME.sk na sme.sk/podcast – Odoberajte aj denný newsletter SME.sk s najdôležitejšími správami na sme.sk/suhrnsme – Ďakujeme, že počúvate podcast Dobré ráno.

As the candidate field narrows further in the Conservatives quest for the next leader, we discuss how those left are trying to win over different female electorates - MPs, the party membership and the women who will have to vote for the new PM in any general election. And, how do they compare to the Lib Dems where the favourite to become their next leader is a woman? Jenni spoke to Anne McElvoy, a senior editor at the Economist and Miranda Green, a journalist and former adviser to the Lib Dems.In 1961 an American pilot, Wally Funk wanted to be an astronaut and passed the Woman in Space programme as part of a group known as the Mercury 13. The programme was abruptly cancelled and instead Wally became America's first woman aviation safety inspector and taught 3,000 pilots to fly. Now nearly 80, Wally still wants to go into space and is on the waiting list to go as a tourist.More than 2,000 people have died after being infected with HIV and hepatitis C through blood treatments. The victims were infected over 25 years ago, in what has been called the worst treatment disaster in the history of the NHS. But even now new cases are still being diagnosed. Michelle Tolley found out that she had been infected with Hepatitis C while she was giving birth in 1987. She tells Jenni what happened and why she is taking part in the Infected Blood Inquiry.Earlier this week we heard of the death in Manhattan of Gloria Vanderbildt. She was 95. She was a famously beautiful, fabulously wealthy socialite, but she was also a fashion designer and known as the Queen of Jeans.

The first footsteps on the Moon were one giant step for 'man', but from the early days of aeronautics women have also been involved in space travel. In Women with the Right Stuff, presenter, pilot and aspiring astronaut Wally Funk pays tribute to the pioneers, meets some of those involved within today's space industry, and hears from the woman who might be among the crew for the first human mission to Mars. Wally has first hand experience of the early days of space travel in America. She undertook secret tests to become an astronaut in 1961 and, along with 12 other female pilots, passed the extremely tough physical tests to become an unofficial member of the ‘Mercury 13' – the women who, given a chance, could have gone into space before Russia's Valentina Tereshkova made history. Wally hears from astronauts Jessica Meier, Helen Sharman, Eileen Collins and Samantha Cristoforetti; mission control flight director Mary Lawrence; space historian David J Shayler; and shares her 1961 astronaut medical tests with NASA flight surgeon Shannan Moynihan. Over 50 years after those tests, Wally is still flying (she takes her producer above Dallas in a Cessna) but she is yet to get into space. However Wally is on the waiting list for one of the first commercial space tourism flights and is prepared to make history as yet another woman with the right stuff.Image: A Wally Funk playing card, Wally was one of the original Mercury 13, Credit: BBC
