She died on 1st February, 2003. A disaster took place while she was in space with Laurel B. Clark, an American astronaut. The spaceship was called Columbia (Mission: STS-107).

She was the first Indian female Astronaut. The first female astronaut was from Soviet Union. Her name was Valentina Tereshkova.

I hope one day people will also know me as a female astronaut! :)

(I thought "Bangladeshi and astronaut? Impossible!". I was very hopeless always. When I heared about Kalpana, my confidence raised 100 times up!)
