Description

Children, especially those fascinated with space and science, will love exploring the possibilities with Barbie.

The first Barbie portrait was reportedly inspired by Warhol’s muse, Billy Boy, a jewelry designer and member of New York’s downtown scene in the 1980s, who owned a vast collection of Barbie dolls. In 2018, ESA and Mattel created two Barbie® dolls in the likeness of ESA astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti, honouring her as part of their role model campaign.

To acknowledge Barbie's influence and status as an inspiration for many, we completed the project at a non-profit-run STEM camp attended by over 100 young girls.Echazarreta and Aderin-Pocock are the latest members of the space exploration and astronomy community to be recognized as role models by Mattel. Wearing a tailor-made spacesuit, Barbie was coated in volcanic ash by a team from Washington State University and sprayed with liquid nitrogen. Released 13 years before NASA accepted its first female astronauts and 18 years before the first American woman would go to space, the Miss Astronaut outfitted doll was ahead of her time. Invented by Mattel Toys co-founder Ruth Handler in 1958, Barbie dolls were conceived as a toy that would allow children to play with a doll of an young woman, not a baby or child/companion. Barbie astronaut doll is ready to launch a new story with the equipment needed to make her journey -- a shimmery spacesuit, helmet and gloves.

During this time, Mattel also released another iteration of Space Camp Barbie (2008) as well as two scientist dolls: Space Scientist Barbie (2017) and Astrophysicist Barbie (2019).That may come as a surprise to rabid collectors who know Barbie has had "astronaut" on her résumé since 1965 — four years before Neil Armstrong landed on the moon. Her first fashion partnership was in 1985, when Oscar de la Renta created a line of designer clothes for Barbie. Later, she accepted a position as engineer and worked on five missions, including the Perseverance rover now on Mars and Europa Clipper, which is set to be launched to Jupiter's moon in 2024. This ongoing global initiative found that girls start to lack confidence in themselves at the age of just five years old.

ESA Astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti Barbie doll is ready for lift-off in her spacesuit, helmet and space boots. With the launch of our Space Discovery line at Target, this year presented the perfect opportunity to create this milestone moment and finally send Barbie to space and the ISS.

The Inspiring Women doll line also launched and featured Frida Kahlo, Katherine Johnson, and Amelia Earhart. Bello far vedere alle nostre piccole che Barbie non è più sinonimo di stupida bambolina ma di donna in carriera. The 1990s was the first time in Barbie history that two space-themed dolls were released within the same decade.
