Nooooooooooo! WTF is with all the pancreatic cancer lately? This sucks.

FUCK FUCKITY FUCK FUCK FUCK CANCER!!!!

@Mistress Cynica: Especially pancreatic cancer.

She did so much for women in science, technology, engineering, and math. I wanted to be an astronaut when I was a kid and she was the reason why.

I love the picture you chose, Bloggie. SF Chronicle has some more of her.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

And she came out of the closet in her obituary. Survived by her partner of 27 years.

@TJ/ Jamie Sommers /TJ: I was weeping at my desk this afternoon.

@SanFranLefty:
I wasn’t sure, but I suspected after reading her obit.

That will send the Jeebus Anti Gay crowd into a tizzy. The first US Amercia female Astronaut was a lesbian. BTW, the first Canada City female Astronaut is one as well.

She went to my high school for a while.
