phil hart's senate career began at the dawn of america's space program and janey hart publicly pushedof women in the astronaut program. 20 years before sally ride became the first woman in space, in her 40s, janey hart passed an astronaut training program with no hope of becoming an astronaut, just to make the point that women could do it. >> think it would be difficult for a woman astronaut to also have a family? >> i've accomplished the production of eight children and in the process of raising them and i still have been able to fly 2,000 hours of flying time and consider able aeronautical experience. >> janey hart opposed america's involvement in the vietnam war before her husband did. she got arrested at the pentagon during a demonstration. michael hart told the "washington post" his father was sometimes asked can't you control that wife of yours and senator hart would always reply, why would i? in 1978, janey hart made a trip behind enemy lines in hanoi to meet with american p.o.w.s and make her own assessment of the situation. the "washington post" reports that she stopped payin
