'''''Captain Evans''''' was the female commanding officer of the[[Explorer Space Shuttle| ''Explorer'']] during the [[STS-157]] mission.

==Character Biography==
Evans' life prior to the events of ''Gravity'' was unknown, although she likely spent much time with NASA, considering her rank. She was the commanding officer of the ''Explorer'' during the STS- 157 mission to the Hubble Space Telescope. Evans did not partake in the spacewalk of the mission. Instead, she remained on board the ''Explorer'' and was heard talking with Houston Ground Control and Commander [[Matt Kowalski]].

Evans, along with [[Thomas]], was killed when the debris from a Russian satellite'' ''destroyed the shuttle, causing her to be [[Space exposure|exposed]] to the extreme conditions of space where she died from [[anoxia]]. Her frozen corpse was later seen floating around the ''Explorer'''s wreck along with Thomas. Evans' corpse startled Dr. [[Ryan Stone]] as she and Kowalski were searching for survivors.
