The first black female astronaut ever assigned to the International Space Station was yanked from the mission just months before it was set to launch, according to a report Friday.
Jeanette Epps, a 47-year-old former CIA agent from Syracuse, NY, was removed from the position aboard the Russian Soyuz spacecraft and replaced by another astronaut, NASA sources told the BBC.
NASA didn’t cite a reason for replacing her but said she would be considered for other missions in the future, the station reported.
