This trendsetter became the first African American female in space. Who is this astronaut?

When fewer women were working for NASA, this rockstar shot to the moon. Mae Carol Jemison became the first African American woman in space in 1987, when she boarded the Space Shuttle Endeavour as a mission specialist. And not only does Jemison have bragging rights as an astronaut; she’s also an engineer and physician.
