  • Peggy Whitson
    PEGGY WHITSON THE LONGEST WOMAN TO STAY IN SPACE INSPIRING facts She holds so many records, for being the oldest woman aged 57: more days in space then any American astronaut of either gender ; more days in space then any other female in the world. The first woman to command the International space station; and most space walks of any female astronaut . She was a biochemist So she sent back as much data as she could She always requested more missions one of the reasons Whiston racked up so many space time. Is because as soon as she landed down from one mission, she requests another one. She was an accomplished space chef with her culinary experiments using freeze dried tortillas. The only 2 things she missed was non freeze dried pizzas and her husband who works on the ground at the Jonson space centre. Peggy Annette Whitson spent 665 days 22 SPACE hours 22 minutes and 36 seconds her selection was in 1996:NASA group . In total TIME EVAs 10 total EVA time 60 hours 21 minutes.

    NASA Astronaut Peggy Whitson Returns from the International Space Station with Record-Breaking Accomplishments, September 4, 2017 President Trump Welcome Home Record-breaking NASA Astronaut Peggy Whitson NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson and Jack Fischer received a special welcome as they were flying home to Houston Sunday evening. President Donald Trump spoke by phone with Whitson and Fischer on a NASA place following Whitson’s record-breaking mission to the International Space Station. Whitson, Fischer, and Commander Fyodor Yurchikhin of Roscosmos, landed back on Earth Saturday in Kazakhstan. She and Fischer flew to NASA Johnson Space Center’s Ellington Field Sunday. “I want to congratulate Peggy and Jack for their incredible accomplishments. They make us all very proud,” said President Trump. “Exploration has always been at the core of who we are as Americans, and their brave contributions to human spaceflight have continued that great tradition.” Whitson’s records are: • She is the U.S astronaut who has the most cumulative time in space with a total of 665 days during three long-duration missions. • She is the only female astronaut to command the station twice. During her second mission, she became the first woman to command the space station. During this mission, she became the first woman to command the space station twice-- she was station commander from April 9 through June 1. • She is the female astronaut who has spent the longest time in orbit during a single spaceflight — 288 days. • She holds multiple spacewalking records: completing the most total spacewalks — 10; and most total spacewalking time — 60 hours, 21 minutes-- for a women; and having the third most spacewalking time for any spacefarer (a cosmonaut is first and former Astronaut Michael Lopez- Alegria is second) “Peggy is an inspiration to us all,” said President Trump, “especially to young women interested in or currently pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering and math.” This was the president’s second call with the two astronauts.
