  • A female astronaut is the center of sexist comments after posting a video describing her awe when seeing Earth from space.

The article from Greek Reporter discusses the sexist online comments directed at a female astronaut, highlighting the pervasive issue of gender discrimination in STEM fields. It details how, despite her significant achievements and contributions to space exploration, the astronaut faced derogatory remarks and skepticism about her capabilities solely based on her gender. The piece also touches on broader societal issues, including the lack of representation of women in space missions, the historical context of women in space, and the ongoing efforts to combat sexism and promote gender equality in science and technology. The article underscores the need for cultural change to support and recognize women's roles in space exploration and STEM, emphasizing that such online harassment reflects deeper systemic problems.
