The first woman to hold the record for the longest cumulative time spent in space is NASA astronaut Christina Koch. She completed a mission aboard the International Space Station (ISS) that lasted 328 days from March 2019 to February 2020. This record surpassed the previous female record for time spent in space, highlighting significant contributions to scientific research and exploration.
Peggy Whitson holds the record for the longest overall time spent in space by a woman, with a total of 665 days. She completed multiple missions to the International Space Station during her career as a NASA astronaut.
