They were blasted into orbit in a bid to encourage girls to pursue aerospace and STEM careers — and “reach for the stars”.

The dolls are modelled after NASA scientists Katherine Johnson and Sally Ride.

Lisa McKnight, Global Head of Barbie and Dolls, said: “It is important that we encourage girls to reach for the stars and pursue careers in aerospace and STEM.

“With help from the International Space Station National Lab team, we are reminding girls that not even gravity can hold them back.”
