For the first time in history, an all-female crew will conduct a spacewalk at the International Space Station, NASA confirmed to CNN

"It was not orchestrated to be this way; these spacewalks were originally scheduled to take place in the fall," Schierholz added. "In addition to the two female spacewalkers, the Lead Flight Director is Mary Lawrence, and Jackie Kagey (also a woman), is the lead EVA (spacewalk) flight controller."

NASA's first all-female spacewalk is delayed because there aren't enough spacesuits that fit.

Now, astronaut Nick Hague is scheduled to join Koch on the walk on Friday.
