Nasa cancels first ever all-female spacewalk because it doesn't have the right spacesuits
Nasa has cancelled the first ever all-female spacewalk, saying it doesn't have enough spacesuits ready in the right size. Two of the astronauts currently on the International Space Station – Christina Koch and Anne McClain – had been set to head out of the floating lab to instal powerful new batteries on the outside to charge up from its solar arrays. But now the space agency says a problem with spacesuits will mean Ms McClain is unable to take part in the spacewalk, and she will be replaced by a man, fellow Nasa astronaut Nick Hague. We'll tell you what's true. You can form your own view.
