I was absolutely certain that one of the Space Shuttle crews was all-female. I remember some hype about it at the time (and some people dismissed it as a stunt).
But I can't find a record of it. Did I imagine this? Was it planned but not executed?
This really bugs me, because I was so certain of it.
Of course, there were many Space Shuttle missions with women astronauts.

Laut #Tagesschau von heute 20 Uhr, verzögerte sich die Rückreise der #NASA Astronauten aufgrund technischer Probleme mit dem #Spaceshuttle.
Kein Wunder, wenn die mit längst eingemotteter Technik unterwegs sind.
#PhotoOfTheDay: #SpaceShuttle #Endeavour Takes Flight
Blue mach diamonds from the main engine nozzles and bright exhaust from the solid rocket boosters mark the successful launch of space shuttle Endeavour 25 years ago on Feb. 11, 2000.
The STS-99 mission crew – including astronauts from NASA, the National Space Development Agency of Japan (NASDA), and the European Space Agency (ESA) – were aboard the shuttle.
