Close up on the face of astronaut Sally Ride. She is wearing a purple dress and sitting before a grey backdrop. She says: "I guess that I was maybe more excited about getting a chance to fly early than I was about getting to be the first woman." Cut to wide shot of the entire room where the press conference is being held. We see the table at which Ride sits along with three other people. The grey backdrop behind them says "NASA" on it in red letters. There are camera crews directly in front of her, and an audience of people behind them. Ride continues: "I'm more excited about that opportunity..." Cut back to close up of Ride's face. She continues: "than I am about being the...you know, as you say, a footnote in history." She smiles as the shot ends.
