<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tall Paul, post: 25660601, member: 114635&quot;]Valentina Tereshkova was the first female to fly in space on the last of the Vostok missions. One of her main qualifications was that she was the number one parachutist in the Soviet Union. The Vostok spacecraft was not able to safely land&nbsp; the cosmonaut back on earth. A hatch opened at high altitude and the cosmonaut was ejected from the Vostok and landed by parachute. Pretty gutsy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
