In recent years, there has been an increased effort to expand diversity and representation in space exploration. History was made when Keisha Schahaff and her daughter Anastatia Mayers became the first Caribbean women to travel to space. Schahaff, originally from the island nation of Antigua and Barbuda, won a coveted seat on a Virgin Galactic spaceflight through a fundraising competition organized by Space for Humanity. She chose to bring her 18-year-old daughter Anastatia, who is currently studying philosophy and physics at Aberdeen University in the UK.
The mother-daughter pair blasted off on an epic journey to the edge of space aboard Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo Unity. During several minutes of weightlessness, they marveled at breathtaking views of Earth against the blackness of space. Their groundbreaking flight inspired people across the Caribbean and proved that the dream of space travel is attainable for women from diverse backgrounds. Schahaff and Mayers showed the world that the future of space exploration lies in the hands of empowered women who dare to dream big.
"The fact that I am here, the first to travel to space from Antigua, shows that space really is becoming more accessible. I know I will be changed by my experience, and I hope I will be able to share that energy and inspire the people around me — in my role as a life coach, a mother and as an ambassador for our beautiful planet." Keisha Schahaff
