Valentina Tereshkova was a 20th century Soviet cosmonaut who became, as far as the majority of humanity was aware, the first woman to journey into outer space, in the 1960s.
The Seventh Doctor, Ace, Markus Creevy and Lt. Raina Kerenskaya saw both Tereshkova and her fellow cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, the first human being in space, on a podium in Red Square, Moscow, in the Soviet Union at a ceremony marking the fiftieth anniversary of the October Revolution on 7 November 1967.
