Lunar Impact Site Named After Sally Ride. Dec. 18, 2012: NASA has named the site where twin gravity probes hit the Moon yesterday in honor of the late astronaut, Sally K. Ride, who was America's first woman in space and a member of the probes' mission team.
The Young Rascals covered the song in 1966, changing the year of the brand new Mustang from 1965 to 1966. The chorus of the song includes the lyrics ride, Sally, ride â a phrase that became fodder for newspaper headlines in 1983, when astronaut Sally Ride became the first American woman in space.
