In this May 24, 2014, file photo, European Space Agency's astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti, of Italy, center, exits a Russian Soyuz TMA-13M spaceship during training in an assembly shop in Russian leased Baikonur cosmodrome, Kazakhstan. Cristoforetti, Italy's first female astronaut, is set to rocket into orbit this weekend from Kazakhstan, bound for the International Space Station. There, she will join Elana Serova. It will be just the second time in the International Space Station's 16-year history that two women make up the six-member crew. (AP Photo/Dmitry Lovetsky, File)
