Title says 10 people, article says 7 astronauts. DeanK, are you mathematically challenged, or am I missing something (one)?

well it says 7 astronauts but it also says 3 women went, so I added 7 and 3 together..

was that wrong?

Yes, I understand that the 3 were included in the 7. Otherwise, they would need a roof rack for the shuttle for the extra luggage.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Discovery and seven astronauts rocketed into orbit Monday on one of NASA's final stockpiling missions to the International Space Station, bringing an early dawn to the coast with this last scheduled shuttle launch in darkness.
