Barbara Morgan, born November 28, 1951 in Fresno, California, went into space aboard Endeavour (STS-118) in August 2007. She had trained as a backup to Christa McAuliffe as NASA's Teacher In Space. She was listed as mission specialist for the mission to the International Space Station.
While in space, she participated in an education event with students at the Challenger Center for Space Education in Alexandria, Virginia (I used to live there!). A few days later, she talked to students at a school in L Ronge, Saskatchewan.
