No, she is very much alive. Sadly, several female astronauts ( US) have died as the result of space accidents in the Shuttle program. There were two females on the Challenger spacecraft ( exploded on the way up) Christa Mcauliffe ( the so-called Teacher in space- she taught sociology, by the way) and a female astronaut named Resnik. There were two female casualties ( on the descent side- as the craft broke up on re-entry) in the Columbia spacecraft tragedy. one was Hindu, the other a Black woman who was a Flight Surgeon from the Navy. So that's the story of Lost female astronauts- fatally so.
