Let's make this birthday one to remember.

65 years old (Born on July 02, 1959)

Happy Birthday, Wendy Lawrence! To the first female graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy to soar beyond Earth's atmosphere—your achievements are truly out-of-this-world. From navigating naval helicopters to piloting space shuttles, you've boldly gone where few have ventured before (and made it look easy!).

Your groundbreaking journeys aboard NASA's shuttle missions continue to inspire generations of dreamers and explorers alike. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy, and zero-gravity cake-eating skills that only an astronaut could master. Here's hoping this year brings you as much excitement as launching into orbit—but perhaps fewer G-forces! Keep reaching for the stars!
