I looked through ALL crew rosters post shuttle program & I can say with about 95% confidence that YES this is the FIRST time two women have been in control of a space vehicle in a crewed environment.
No mention in the #NASA news release.
So let's celebrate Cmdr. Anne McClain & Pilot Nichole Ayers!

Yesterday, Crew-10 launched from KSC with four crewmembers. The commander & pilot are both women.
Is this the first time women have been in full control of a space vehicle? I certainly can't find any other time it's happened (at least from the US) If so... why isn't it being talked about more?

NEW: Platformer has obtained the dehumanizing new guidelines moderating what people can now say about trans people on Facebook and Instagram. Employees tell me these changes are likely to inspire more violence against LGBT people: www.platformer.news/meta-new-tra...

I would use dictation on iOS so much more if it auto-ignored me grumbling to myself about how bad dictation is on iOS.
