NASA Nixes the Upcoming All-Women Spacewalk

Astronauts Christina Koch and Anne McClain were set to exit the International Space Station and make history together on March 29 with the first all-female spacewalk. But NASA has had to reshuffle the personnel partially because of a lack of correctly sized spacesuits, the agency said Tuesday.

"Mission managers decided to adjust the assignments, due in part to spacesuit availability on the station," NASA said in a statement.
