More than 40 women
As of October 2023, a total of 580 individuals have flown to space, with many of them reaching low Earth orbit. However, only a select group has traveled beyond low Earth orbit, specifically to destinations like the Moon. The most notable missions include the Apollo program, where 24 astronauts traveled beyond Earth's orbit. Therefore, the number of astronauts who have gone out of orbit is 24.
A total of 24 US astronauts have been to the Moon, and 12 have walked on its surface. There were a total of 27 astronauts on 9 Apollo lunar missions, but three of these went twice. (see related question)

A total of 355 individuals have flown in the space shuttle program, which operated from 1981 to 2011. This number includes astronauts, scientists, and civilians who participated in various missions during the program's duration.
The US has flown to the moon six times between 1969 and 1972 as part of the Apollo program. Each mission landed astronauts on the lunar surface and brought them safely back to Earth.
During the Apollo missions, there were typically two astronauts who landed on the moon, while the third stayed in orbit around the moon. The lunar module carried two astronauts to the moon's surface, while the command module pilot remained in orbit.
