"The path from dreams to success does exist." One day, a little girl in a small town of India, saw a plane flying above her house. Fascinated, she made up her mind to do the unthinkable. And the paper planes she loved making, gave her dreams wing. When her maths teacher said, 'women astronauts in India is an example of an empty set,' she made up her mind to prove her wrong. She went halfway around the world and grabbed her dream. And went on to spend 31 days, 14 hours, and 54 minutes in space. Watch the inspiring journey of Kalpana Chawla - the first India-born woman in space.

Was awake in morning to see the colambia shuttle descent to earth. Was quite disheartened to see the crash, cried a lot that morning. She was made of material stars are made of. Hoping the story inspire many Indians.

To achieve her dreams she had to move out of India and Marry a foreigner.. aha.. smart choice. Had she married an Indian she'd be expected to become maid for her in laws and pick up after the man child.
