The astronauts who came in with me in my astronaut class - my class had 29 men and 6 women - those men were all very used to working with women.
But when I wasn't working, I was usually at a window looking down at Earth.
The experience of being in space didn't change my perspective of myself or of the planet or of life. I had no spiritual experience.
The view of Earth is spectacular.
I've spent my whole life not talking to people, and I don't see why I should start now.
It's no secret that I've been reluctant to use my name for things.
