China launches first female space taikonaut 神州九号 on ShenZhou 9

Hooray for 33 year old Major Liu Yang and her space buddies Colonel Jing HaiPeng and Major Liu Wang.

I love my fatherland whose vision is that women can hold up half of the heavens: 妇女能顶半边天 (a famous quote by Chairman Mao ZeDong), and our space program would be incomplete without the female crewmembers. Of course men hold up the other half ^.^ We will perservere and focus on our national mission to serve the future hope and progress of our people, and share our achievements with all the good people of the world.

33岁刘洋出生于河南省郑州市，祖籍安阳林州市五龙镇泽下村，中国首名女航天员，为空军第七批女飞行员，中国空军少校军衔，毕业于空军长春飞行学院，学士学位。至2012­年，安全飞行记录为1,680小时。刘洋搭乘在2012年6月16日升空的神舟九号飞船执行空间任务，是中国首位进入太空的女性航天员。
